I don't know, but it sure is an interesting photo! It looks somehow "otherwordly," like an alien flower. I love the tones and lighting on this! Wonderful photo!

It really does look otherwordly, Carolyn. It's like a big bush, now. And it moves with the wind. Quite nice to look at. Thanks!

That camera is a roaring success if you ask me! This really is a toy cam masterpiece. I like the rich and dark treatment of what is 'bright and beatiful subject matter'. Super shot, Mark.

Hi Ann; for me, gardening is just water and fertilizer. Don't know what else. A knack perhaps. Thanks,

Hi Hansi; the bright-and-beautiful subject matter is among the hardest, because one has to really think about not presenting another cliche. I just saw it and made an exposure, convinced that it would just be a test shot and nothing else more than a cliche shot. Maybe it is, maybe not, but liked it enough to share it. I'm glad you like it too. Thank you.

I like the photo and I like the "about", Mark. They're both extraordinary, the story and the photo.
Thank you for your detailed comment on my "I am Yoav!"
Yoav (I dont know how to spell it in English), but he is our second eldest grndson, named after King David's chief of staff who was later assassinated for having killed Absalom. They ( our family members) are all aware that their photos will be posted and Yoav posed deliberately for that purpose.
Best regards,
Rafi

Hi Mark,
well, I really love both the picture and the about. I'm fascinated what these toy cams do with their users. Not only do they see the world through a different lens, they gonna mod that thing! Saturday, I trapped myself buying some stuff to mod the body with strips! =)
like that out of focus-focus here. very distinct and special perspective.

Oh, you mean strips of gaffer's tape? Yes, that's standard equipment on toy cams, LOLOL. Thanks, Thilo.

Tips and tricks, now that's a great idea. But just ask, and it won't cost you a thing! Say, did you get your Holgaroid yet?

Great photo .. the technical perspective makes the shot of this sunflower just fit .. the black to bright circles of vignetting + the hidden sun behind the flower .. perfectly composed for this kind of camera !

Thank you, Melanie. Yeah, a little sadness, especially when I think of all its siblings that didn't get to see spring time except for this one. I'm so glad you like it.
