Flower...

[John Wright]

At Asher's suggestion, I am posting this flower. I found it at the Bernardo Winery in Rancho Bernardo, San Diego, California. I have no idea what kind of flower it is. It was morning and the flower was still opening up.

Sunflower?

Just a guess.

Really looks cool!

great shot! nice colors, well composed...what camera/lens you shoot it with? and have you played with it as an abstract?

Wow! This image is a real attention grabber. Wonderfully done and the background bokeh contributes in a subtle but significant way. I too like to learn about the camera and lens used.

I was sitting at my desk and noticed a picture of a flower I printed years ago in B&W at a whopping 4" x 6" !

Well, I found the picture in short order and althought not exact, it does bare resemblance.

Taken with a Sony Cybershot, just for fun:
