SO pretty. Love the black background and the dark center of the flower. The colors and the detail in the flowers is really beautiful. Love those stripes! Nice!

Hey Pat!
This is a beautiful image of this wonderfully colored flower. I too do not know the name but it is really gorgeous. The black background works perfectly and allows some nice contrast to the foreground petals. Thanks for sharing!

What gorgeous pink blooms,the seem to glow against the black backdrop.The striping on the petals almost give a sense of movement,like watching an exploding firework spray.They remind me of hibiscus blooms. Beautiful color saturation and focus;there seem to be a lot of gorgeous flowers in that garden!

    Thank you so much LeeAnn! I will find out their correct name. I thought petunia by the petals but the center is not like a petunia.

Comment from Lucien van Oosten


The idea of isolating the flowers by using a neutral even colored background is a nice idea, so long as the main subject or subjects are in perfect focus. And that the background compliments the colors in the a main subject as well.
As I see it, this image does nether one of thus things, the flower seem slightly out of focus, because the stamen are not crisp and clear. And using black a the negative space color saps some of life out of the flowers colors. A darker green would have pushed the flowers more to the for front and complimented their warm colors.
Nice idea, needs some work, in my opinion .

Thank you for allowing me to comment on your post.
Take care, be safe.
Cheers
Lucien

How gorgeous is this flower looks like candy stripes. The composition is beautiful and the color perfectly shown. The black background enhances the pink and your focus is sharp.

Your photo caught my attention immediately. The vibrant fuchsia, magenta, and raspberry pink tones protrude out among the black backdrop and glow from my computer screen. The flower imitates a firework seen from heaven. They are more than just flowers.

I love the way that you capture the pink color in this flower. From the light-pink ,all most white stripes to the deep pink to all-most purple in the middle. And the background been black. That is an awesome job.

Hello Alaska Pat, This is an excellent shot of a very beautiful flower. I think by darkening the background, you really brought this flower to life. Great zoom and focus. I thought I knew flowers a little, but this flower caused me to Google it. Unfortunately, I did not find it, but I noticed that you have some beautiful flowers in Alaska. Excellent photo.
