Description I've been saying that I will post more photographs, and, ironically, I had this particular piece ready a good few months back. However, Sta.sh decided to be troublesome and wouldn't let me submit anything. By the time it finally did (over a month later), this fell by the wayside.

I can't say that I'm looking for any critiques on this piece. I know there are a lot of flaws here and there, but I like how it has turned out, personally. Because I have not submitted a photograph in so long, much less take a photograph purely for its own sake, I feel like I am lost and finding my way around to a world that I was once so connected with, artist wise.

Anyway, can any of you guess what this is?

Just being a dork. This has such a surreal quality to it. I didn't realise it was a photograph until I read your description.

I really love this piece, the thumbnail got my attention when it reached my feed, and the first thing I said was Well, that's a nice color contrast, not too in your face, but delicate and the transition between red and green is made by the ..how should I call them? Light speckles. And the second thing I said was But what is that?Β 

Now that I look at it in full resolution, I think of it as a flower that most of the people can't find.

You should really post more photographs, but when you're ready. You don't have to post just because you haven't posted and be proud of your work. After all, perfection isn't wanted in photography (or any other art, really) so in my opinion flaws can be good. Flaws is what makes us improve, experiment and love pushing further to that dream.


So, what is this?

Thank you so much for your kind comments! I have to say I didn't have much influence over the colours there.

It is kind of like a flower.

And yes, you are right. Flaws are quite hard to digest, though.. or even live with sometimes.

It is a Christmas bauble!

Neat macro. Β I like how you took an abstract approach to macro.


It almost feels like being at a concert. Β Lights flashing all around with the audience waving their arms in a green blur.

I love these little pearls shining like precious jewels

the perspective here is so much misleading...

but I like this in Your photos El

you never 'serve' images which we see many times in our life

but You always offer some different vision od the things we see so often..


I'll try to guess what it is... because I have two options

1. raindrops covering a spiderweb

2. pearl air freshener

I love this photograph, to be quite honest with you. Strongly feels like a macroshot mixed with nature... though I could be wrong in that respect.


they look like dewdrops to me, but that's just my intuition... then again, those are grass blades, but I could be wrong there... I'm looking at it and I'm liking it

It's a cherry with waterdrops on it, or one of those jewel-like round things made of beads/shiny stuff. I have a few of those, red, to put on my Christmas tree and they look just like it.


It's probably something else entirely, but it's really nice anyway. Melikes bokeh.

That's pretty cool.

It could even be the same one! Or same design, rather.
