The Calla
I saw a similar shot from a photography book I've been reading and I've been waiting for the opportunity to replicate it, or produce my own version of it.Calla Lily is my favorite flower. I used a lot of them on my wedding day. I like the colored ones more, but white callas are more abundant and easy to find. Last year, I bought two calla lily shrubs for our little garden. One of them turned out frail and skinny, and it only blossomed once. While the other one got big, healthy, and it hasn't stopped giving flowers since I had it--even through the winter. This photo was taken under the shade with natural lighting. To achieve the dark background, I had the hub behind the plant holding a black coat (hehe, thanks Beybee!).
Just a different angle of the Calla.

Hi Cuz! Yes, the black background was a tip from Scott Kelby. I've been following a lot of his tips in my photos, including my photo in this entry. I can see that you're trying them too, that's really great! A lot of them actually work.
