Scabiosa
An extreme closeup of a scabiosa flower, with just a few of the anthers in focus:
Looks a bit like an astronomic nebula. Another example of getting close and melting the context, leaving just a few meaningful details.

It does have an effect of falling into the sea, maybe that’s the only
logic my brain heads for in that I know the possible depth of water
and that things, crests/peaks rise from water’s surface. Or if it’s like
thickened air with elfen pollens darting past as one plows through.
The color’s beautiful. Quite a voyage in any and all events. The bee’s
view, the hummingbird’s, the insect’s.
When I look through the viewfinder, sometimes I fall in. That’s what happened with this one – so glad that you took a dip in this image (and wrote about it)!
Beautiful nebulous abstract, Tom. The color is lovely.
Thanks, Steve. It was exciting to find a new way of looking at a familiar flower – I only wish the breeze hadn’t been blowing…
Besides its intrinsic beauty, what I see in it, is also a pattern for a little girl’s chiffon dress. ( and I do NOT mean as precociously sexy objects!!) – I knew a lady artist who designed repetitive patterns that she sold to fashion houses. I always though that was a magic job.
The pattern is the subject, and the pattern is a lot like the dots on a dress – thanks for the kind words.
loved the abstractness 🙂
Thanks, Joshi!
Nice Tom. Soft, ethereal images like this are harder to pull off than one may think at first glance. It takes just that right combination of elements and composition, which you did nicely with here.
Very creative! There is much room for interpretation and to let your fantasy play.
Great shot, Tom!
Love how abstract this is
