Anne Elliott's photos with the keyword: inside

Wasn't sure whether to post this one or not, as it doesn't look very carefully photographed (i.e. if I'd taken a bit more time, I would have angled my camera to avoid the bit of "mess" where stem meets flower and would have removed the leaf on the left.). Light indoors was not good. I love the zig-zag edges to this Tulip's petals - I don't usually see Tulips like this one. Bought, as usual, from Safeway : ) LOL, I'm still waiting for some sunlight to come pouring through my window so that I can get another chance to try again before these flowers die. The "flame" pattern inside is really neat, too - hoping that at least one of the flowers will open before it whithers and dies : )

About a year ago, I was one of the photographers who were contacted by Lark Books, requesting the use of a photo for their book FOCUS: LOVE. They picked out my yellow Tulip with tiny red hearts image that you can see in the centre of the front cover - it's also just inside the book and on the inside back cover, as well as on page 79. Love the way the "O" in FOCUS is cut out, to reveal a bright red heart. Yesterday, I received a complimentary copy of this book and just HAD to show it here because I think it is such a delightful little book, full of inspiration. (Oh, and no, I don't make any money from the sale of this book, ha). There are 180 pages and the price in Canada is $19.50 ($14.95 US). Due to be released in February 2010. Congratulations to the creators of this book and congratulations to all the photographers who have shared their work. If you are included, I would love to hear from you! www.larkbooks.com/catalog?isbn=9781600595639
