Irving Penn

Never thought i would be because i really don't like flowers but i think that even though its so predictable I'm obsessed with still life images of flowers. I really like this shot of a poppy. The way that you don't look it at from above like you would expect. I like the side view, so you can see all the folds in the flowers petals. And that you can see the tones and showers created by the light hitting different areas. I like the framing and how you can see the stem of the flower.
