Direction | Edge | Leading
Basically this prompt is about using line to create movement and direction in a photo with the aim of leading the viewer into the frame.
I've been meaning to photograph the flower that has blossomed on my shallot - it's sent up a long stalk in the middle with a flower that has gradually opened. I probably should remove the flower, but I'm curious to see whether seeds will fall from it and if so, whether they will then grow. I'm still using the leaves from the sides of the plant in salads and other dishes.
So for this prompt I'm going with the lines you find when you look at flowers through a macro lens - my favourite!
The opening flower bud on the other shallot plant.
I'm pretty sure this is classed as a weed, but the colours on it are just gorgeous. It's some sort of tiny climbing vine that is growing at the front - I probably should pull it out, but it isn't doing any harm yet.
Lots of fine white lines on the callistemon.
Hmmm, this wasn't the version of the cordyline that I wanted to post, but it's a bit late to go wandering back to the shed/office to upload the correct version.
Short and sweet and that's it for tonight. Tomorrow is a full day in the city - early start from home and a late finish. Take out for dinner perhaps!
