Inner Sanctum - a photo on Flickriver

Inner Sanctum

This is another image of the pink poppy from my garden (see flic.kr/p/2p9S7vh for a mono rendition of the same flower).

It’s a ‘plain’ colour edit using the usual tools in Capture One and Affinity, with a bit of noise removal using Topaz DeNoise AI.

The main creative challenge was how to crop it. I wanted to avoid the square crop all-inclusive approach. I thought of using an even thinner aspect but that didn’t work so well as you lost the concentric circles of the ring of anthers… sigh. I also rotated in to get some balance in the petals - a problem in itself. Finally, I tried flipping it horizontally and thought it worked for a while, Then I came back to it today and preferred it unflipped. Time to move on…

Thanks for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image. Happy Flower Friday and 100x :)
