calla lily - curves

Description

calla lilies are beautiful flowers, and i happen to be lucky enough to have some growing (wild might i add) in my back yard. i think the previous occupants of the house i'm now in were a little keen on gardening, and these seem to have survived my harsh brown thumb. i decided i would cut 2 of the tonight and have a go at presenting them in a unique fashion. i have taken photos of calla's before, and i was pleased. i am also pleased with how these turned out.. so enjoy the feast that is to come!

about this photo
i really wanted to bring out the curves in this (the older) lily. it is probably the largest one i've ever seen and it was perfect! it had curves and lines and details which just leapt out at me, and i couldn't resist showing off the curves of it's 'womanly form'.

You have some very lovely flower macros in your gallery, definately going to have you in my watch.
And definataly I'm soon goint to nearby Finnish biggest garden center to shoot flowers too <3 :-)

I think this photo could be improved further with some little tweaking with photoshop, like levels, color balance and a little bit of noise reduction.
If you wish, I can show you the results of such tweaking and teach you how I did it. It's really easy and is not photoshop specific.
