This was another of my many experimental flower photographs taken in Northumberland this summer using my 50mm close up lens. Purists will say that it’s a shame that the back of the flower is blurred, but I like this big contrast between the sharp purple underside of the flower head and the softness of the pinks and greens behind it. In my mind the flower stands out more and looks more 3D.
