This was going to be cosying on up to a fellow image, for Dip-It-Thursday's oh so blue, but the thing about these empty spaces is they look kind of weird nestled up to anything else.

Lovely photo - beautiful colour and dof. Like the pose of the flower. Nice use of the word 'contusion' in the tag too - do you have a medical background, or are you just a lexicographer?

You can't fill your negative space.... :-) That's just crazy talk I tell ya!
Lovely photo (surely that counts as Indigo (no.13)) ....

Beautiful photo, the flower and the white background are stunning together. I liked seeing your dip attempt, too, it's always interesting to see an outtake and the second photo looks amazing too- that link didn't work for me to view large...

perfect the way it is...yeah, now you have me wondering how it will look like with another half (for dip)....

JustCallMe_♥Bethy♥_ (36 months ago | reply)
both are so pretty! What about one on top of the other?
Either way they are beautiful!

I prefer it by itself, and the other image is just too exquisite to share the limelight. the use of white space is just dreamy:)
{{Paul - in hibernation}} (36 months ago | reply)
no you're right, doesn't work as a Dip, unless the other side was maybe a mirror image ? That said, both of these are beautiful and this one in particular is a fave

Lol....well you pay the price for having an original thing that you can call your trademark...unique people always found it hard to fit in or combine (referring to the diptych...lol)
wink

I love negative space - beautiful
Kaboomish Gem (36 months ago | reply)
I love the light coming through this flower... I see what you mean about the negative space lokoing weird next to something though. The other picture looks like its a good one in its own right as well.
