Description

I can't remember the name of these purple beauties. This image was captured last summer in a gloomy graveyard. The sun was catching them just right and they just seem to light up the whole place with their beauty. The other amazing thing about these flowers is how they change color a little depending on the light. Here the sun was slightly diffused by a passing cloud and they appear to be a bluish violet color. A few seconds later, they got lit by the full sun and turned a warmer, reddish shade of violet. Amazing flowers! A favorite capture from last year, I just had the full res version of this image printed by Adoramapix on Kodak Endura metallic paper. That paper is absolutely amazing! It's almost like they made that paper for the type of images I shoot. That amazing photo paper seems to glow from within - wow!
