Gone to Seed

Resorting once again to archive raiding...

This one was taken back in August. I must admit that I no longer recall what it was that I wanted out of this shot, just that I wasn't fully satisfied with this result. Now that I can't remember what I wanted I find that I like it a little more.

Quite a bit of work was done on this one. I think it's worth noting that what looks like a shadow behind this dead flower (wild marigold or something like that I think) is actually another dead flower in the distance. The picture was actually shot in very bright (and hot) sunlight, which I suppose gives a little bit of a hint of what was done in processing.
