Have you ever heard that color can affect your mood? Studies suggest that red signifies passion, blue is calming, and yellow puts you in a happy mood.
Think of what the world would be like if we didn't have color; if everything we saw was in black and white. Would everyone be walking around with a sad face? Or would everyone be the same because they were none the wiser? What would it be like to be colorblind? These are the questions I wonder.
For this shoot, I immediately thought of flowers at the Denver Botanic Garden. I was caught off guard when a bee did a drive-by my face. Or maybe it was a fly-by. I had to see what the fuss was about and saw this gorgeous giant-sized dandelion.
Dandelions were my grandmother's favorite flower, so when I saw this, I had to take a picture of it. Partnered with my affection for bees, but only the kind with the fur that kind of makes me want to pet them, it was perfect. It's just too bad that bees and I don't have mutual feelings for each other.
Great depth of field, composition, and juxtaposition of colors.

ReplyDeleteLove the subject, close up shot, and depth of field however the highest point of contrast has a "booger" that could have been removed and/or darkened to help focus on the subject.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed the personal touch in the content—how a buzzing bee grabbed your attention and brought you to something so colorful and then how it brought back memories.
Overall nice shot.
