Looking up - a side view of flowers

To the right you’ll see another example of the concept I mentioned yesterday. I was trying to do three things, which I acheived with moderate success: capture complex flowers from a different angle, throw something of interest into the background, and give an impression of the flowers reaching up to the sun.

I partially succeeded – the angle is somewhat unusual, and I did get a nice light-to-dark effect going with the falling of light on the grass.  I only came close to the concept of “reaching to the sun.”

To do this, I took a look at the background, and worked around the sides until I found an angle that interested me.  If I were to do this again, I’d probably go further away, zoom a little more, and angle the flowers to be in the lighter part of the background.  Or maybe the opposite – who knows?
