Kentlands Photowalk: Dahlia IMG 4998

 

This dahlia is from our Kentlands home garden in Gaithersburg, Maryland 20878. To obtain a blank background like this, simply position a sheet of paper behind the flower. It is fun to try different paper colors.

Kentlands is a planned neo-traditional community located within the City of Gaithersburg in the heart of Montgomery County, Maryland. Kentlands is a preferred area for families relocated to the Metro Area of the District of Columbia.

You made it look like a print. That is so neat. Thanks for sharing your tip about the background, too. I remember that from another post you wrote. I hope you are having a great Sunday.

Hi Roy Kelley ,  That's a great technique.  It almost makes it look like a drawing.

Try using a sheet of paper behind a flower for your photograph. It is fun to use different colors.
