Standing Out
I fell in love with this photo the second my eyes were laid upon it. It is exceptional in so many ways. I love the chiaroscuro effect with the completely black background, it really brings out the orange in the flower! Also the amount of detail and focus is perfect in this shot! The funny thing is this was taken with a hand held point and shoot camera, according to the photo’s page it was a Samsung digimax a503, showing that it really is the photographer and not the camera!
