My first attempt at blacking out a background :) It has taken me so long that the bud has probably opened by now :)

This really makes those beautiful buds stand out so it was worth the effort! Lovely framing as well.

Not quite sure how you achieved this effect ... but it's quite stunning. The "Bud" is dazzling surrounded in darkness. Well done ... 1st attempt or otherwise.

Just an old "Grampa" who still has a Kodak "Box" camera kicking around the attic ... learning and enjoying the wonders of modern digital photography.
The black background really makes this 'bud' a terrific standout. Well worth the effort.

CITIZENS of our world, check my website for a riveting, informational video that concerns all of you and the future of our globe. You will be flabbergasted, annoyed, distressed, in disbelief, but you will have been made aware of the WARNINGS. See this film. It gets better as it goes along, but will have your attention from the first quote.
Very soft and sweet little bud! Wonderful job Eve, and you did quite well blacking out the background..=)

Hi Lyn, this is so beautiful, the bud is simply exquisite, a lovely flower, with a lovely background, and what a job you did with your talents here my dear! Your background is terrific and so enhances the flower to perfection!!! The bud being pink, doesn't sway my opinion at all you know, teasing you dear! I also want to mention how very much I appreciate your many visits to my gallery! They are so pleasing to me and fun to read, especially the reference you made on 'Contemplation', about your seeing nothing wrong with looking at the reflections upside down! You know Lyn, the fact of the matter, is that the image was not inverted, just merely taken as seen! Some thought this was the case! LOL! Thank you dear, Sincerely, Marilyn

I don't think rhodies are "mundane"--we have dozens of them in our garden each beautiful in its own way. This is a lovely presentation. What technique did you use to deal with the background?
