Freedom vs Captivity...

A wild rose, shot in her natural environment.
The light was just perfect, so I managed to get a nice balance between the background and the subject, giving it that stark and dark look that I so much like, isolating the flower completely.

This poor one was all squashed in a supermarket stand, with hundreds of other plants around. Still managed to stand out from all that mess though.
So much that I decided to pull my phone out and take a couple of shots.
It might be a decaying Chrysanthemum, but I am not really sure.

Next time we save all the poor, squashed plants from the supermarket. Hows that? :D

My wallet would appreciate if we didn't :p

Luckily your wallet cannot talk :D

Never expected a flower's photo(i prefer the 1st one) to be so beautiful in B&W ! Very good job !

Why not? I post flowers very often :D

This photograph is High Art. Brilliantly done!

Thank you so much, @momzillanc!

¿Por qué hay fotos tuyas que me hacen querer decir malas palabras...o al menos tenerlas colgadas en la pared de mi casa...o meterme dentro de ellas y quedarme ahí tranquilita? jejeje
Why are there photos of you that make me want to say bad words ... or at least have them hanging on the wall of my house ... or get inside them and stay there very peaceful? hehehe

If they make you want to say bad words it might mean my photos suck :p

jajajajajajajajaja, noooo por dios! jajajajajajajaja en todo caso apestan a belleza.
jajajajajajajajaja, noooo my god! In any case jajajajajajajaja reeks of beauty.

It is autumn in my country so there are some lovely fading roses. Your shot is a lovely memory of summer for me.

I love fading flowers and to capture their decay process. Normally it looks great in B&W.
