Thats great Ian, when you said shocker, i didn't know what to expect, But this is really cool! Superb presentation and the orange stands out big time with that white backround. A wonderful piece of work all round.
Great job, Ian - the flower is very well photographed and I like the way you have superimposed it on an enlarged and blurred version of the same. The drop down shadow could have been a little thinner, in my opinion.
"Imperfection is beauty; madness is genius & it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring. And when it comes down to it, I let them think what they want. If they care enough to bother with what I do, then I'm really better than them."--Marilyn Monroe
"'Life is not a journey to the grave with the
intention of arriving safely in a pretty
and well preserved body,
but rather to skid in broadside,
thoroughly used up,
totally worn out,
and loudly proclaiming,
"WOW! What a ride!"'
