Description Not often i do flower photography, but my mom mentioned a flower next to the stairs she thought i would like.
It was blue and had a layer of dust on it, so i grabbed my macro lens and tried different views.
It was branches above it, so i moved them to cover for the sun, just letting a tiny ray of light hit the flower.

Made it black and white with Lightroom and tone work in photoshop. The Grain is added.
Some light above the flower may look like sensordust, but it is the sun that reflected in the lens. I don't have a lenshood.
Fullview please and Feedback is appreciated

This is so beautiful, words cant describe it. I love the tone, so it was the right thing to change the tone. The contrast etween the dark background and the light parts of the flower really make it "pop", which adds such a strong effect. Great details too, and the natural lighting is beautiful too, I love the range of highlights and shadows in this shot. Amazing macro!
