Description
This amazing photo was achieved by using a hand held lens and manually focussing until I obtained the image as you see it. It does have a surreal and abstract appeal. The dark shadow in the mid right section of the photo is the actual piston of the flower, it was an extreme sunny day and the sunlight was filtering through the petals. At that particular time I was unable to obtain a macro lens so I had done some experimental attempt of actually having one attached to the camera. The particular photo also had a celestial appeal to it. The photo also has a abstract look to it. There are many variety's of the Canna Plant. The blooms are delicate to winds and rain. They bloom shades of peach, to yellow to reds and are multi-colored as well. This is one of many personal favorites.
