sometimes the background makes all the difference

the yellow behind this flower is the shop's delivery van.

I suppose an accurate, yet horrible, title could be roadkill.  But that would be too harsh for this blossom. I wanted to pick it up & put it on the grass.  I was shopping at Leaf & Petal.

  4. That is correct!!! I used to have white background for my shoe designs and a while ago start displaying them with colored backgrounds and as you stated “makes all the difference”, it makes it a standout piece, gives more dynamics, breathes more life into it so I’m all into backgrounds. Two great shots with two different stories, love it.

      Thank you, Eva. I was lucky to have been there when the yellow van was. It was a great day. I’m glad you went for color instead of just white. You never know what is going to grab the most people attention unless, as my friend says, “you step out of your comfort zone” ~amy

  6. I just have to say WOW!! The white flower over the yellow background (yellow is one of my favourite colours) is just mesmerising!

      Veronica, there were men climbing into the yellow delivery van & I was saying, “no, no…wait” so i could try to get the flowers in before they left & find a flower that was in front of a solid yellow piece & not a door crack or window…I was really lucky with that photograph! Thank you so much. You should take the photo! ~amy
