Flower upon flower

[Alfred Forns]

Used one flower as bg for the main flower. Had trouble aligning with the wind blowing flowers around.

Comments welcome and much appreciated

Geez, Al, that had to be one big flower in the BG! I like the idea...have done it before with many flowers but never tried to capture one on one like this...neat idea!

Might think about doing a vignette around the outer edges to close in that BG of yellow...just a thought.

Liked the outer (yellow) flower's OOF petals mimicking the in-focus flower (though with bit more curvy edge). Realy good job in keeping the flowers centered in windy conditions.
I must give this one a try !

[Rene Quenneville]

Nice concept. Colors are beautiful.

[Christopher Miller]

Love the colors Al! I want to try out this idea myself.

Hey Alfred, lots of pop here. Like the DOF. Great contrast.

Great idea and execution on this photo. Don't think I could pull it off , wind or no wind.

Thanks for sharing....
