White Rose

By
Real Estate Agent with DFW FINE PROPERTIES 0506509

 

 

Sometimes I need roses in my life. Today I needed the white roses and thought I'd play with placing my subject rose in front of different backgrounds. The first one was taken with some long grasses.

 

 

 

 

The second photo was taken using a purple pillow for the background.

 

 

 

 

I tried different color backgrounds for my white roses but I thought these three background colors were my favorite. For the third photo, I placed a rose in front of my stainless steel refrigerator. 

 

 

 

 

I found it interesting to see how the shade of the white rose changes with various background colors. I really thought a Caribbean blue would make it pop but I wasn't impressed with the results. I'd be interested to hear what knowledge you have with regards to using background with flowers.

Good morning Patricia. You have a wonderful eye for color and beauty. The first photo really stands out for me, but using the different backgrounds really make this white rose stand out.

Thanks Joe! I love digital because I can take so many pictures and delete the ones I don't like instead of wasting expensive film. I have fun making decisions and trying something new and I appreciate your comments and you too!

Good morning Patricia,

I love flowers and love how you created photos with the same rose but different backgrounds. I'm drawn to #1 :). I like the texture of the background..it doesn't detract but enhances the rose.

My mother was fond of white roses.  I like the picture with the purple background.  Your rose is very interesting how it seems to be a little fringed along the edges.

What a great photo study.  Back before marraige and kids, when I had money I invested a small fortune in film cameras and loved it.  I like the purple background best.

Hi Patricia,

Beautiful rose pictures and the purple pillow gives it some luxury as it is such a regal color.

Roses are by far my favorite flower. I like the ruffled/ragged edges.
