Once I got started in Photoshop, I couldn't resist playing with the photo a bit more and eventually came up with an abstract which bears little resemblance to the original.

Table and Chairs
Once again I've picked a photo where everything isn't quite as it seems. In reality there were a lot less chairs than there are in this edited version.

I don't often take photos of flowers growing in nature. Usually my flower photos show flowers growing on potted plants. More often than not they're growing on my bonsai trees. However there are occasions when I need something a bit different and in May 2011 I needed to find a more natural view in a hurry.
I didn't have to look far as the daisy bush in my garden was covered with flowers. It's not a beautiful plant though and I wasn't sure that I'd be able to get anything interesting, but I had to try.
Imagine my surprise when I discovered this little guy hiding in one of the flowers.
He moved around quite a bit during this shoot, but was cooperative enough to let me get several shots I liked.
I'm still not sure which one I like best.

Red Flower, Yellow Flower
Even though photography has been one of my hobbies for more than half my life, I'm still struggling to develop my own photographic style.
One thing I particularly enjoy, however, is showing the world in a way that the human eye doesn't normally get to see it. One way of doing this is to get up close and personal to tiny things like I did in my post about "The Fly".
Another way is by choosing lenses which show a distorted picture of the world.
I don't have a fisheye lens, but I do have a fisheye adaptor which screws into the front of my lens and allows me to get up close to little things, making them appear large in the photo, while making background items appear tiny. That's how I managed to make these flowers appear larger than the trees in the background.
