102 : Backside of magenta flower



Really liked how the nasturtium shot turned out the other day, so thought I'd try to see how some other blooms might turn out if shot from a different angle than from the front. Was really surprised on this one to see how different the color was on this side with the sunlight passing through it. Whereas it's a dark shade of purple/magenta on the top side (where the petal curls over on its edges), it's this almost translucent color from the backside with the sun coming though... thought it made for a great shot with the green backdrop and the little green petal extenders on each petal.
