Janet Brien's photos with the keyword: textured buds

I love the shapes of forming flower buds. They are so varied and sometimes they don't look anything like a bud at all. These are a perfect example—they look like some sort of strange triple-headed space alien! I took this picture during the garden tour that Steve and I went on a few years ago in Ashland. Looking at these buds and the fine detail I got, I really wanted to process the image. However, the background was a white garage door, which meant it would be a perfect opportunity for a textured background! I'm really happy with the result—what do you think? :) Explored on August 2, 2016. Highest placement, #59.
