Many thanks to Belita for hosting this week. A very interesting theme, with many possible variations!! I had to think about this one for a while and do some searching of my archive. I finally came up with two 'contrast' shots and two 'difference' shots.
1) Contrast 1: Natural contrast of light and dark. Thistles at sunset.
2) Difference 1: Bumblebee (left) and Honeybee (right)
3) Contrast 2: Artificial contrast of light and dark. Candle against dark background.
4) Difference 2: Life and lifelessness. Small plant growing in the cinders of a lava field. Sunset Crater, Arizona.
I think this prompt really brings out the imaginative in us. The thistle is no longer just a thistle, but a work of art. A good catch with the two types of bees. Like the contrast in the third photo and fascinating where those plants appear.
ReplyDeleteHi Mitch, that is a magnificent picture of the thistle. Nice capture of the bees; splendid macro. I love the warmth of the different types of light. My favorite is the succulent growing up, seemingly out of nothing, in the lava field. Contrast/difference in color, texture and life.
ReplyDeleteHi Mitch! Wonderful set of shots for the theme. All of them are my favourites, topped by the candle against dark background...
