Crocosmia on Black

Crocosmia on Black
Taken in my garden using a piece of black card to hide the untidy background. I staked this stem to prevent it moving and used a tripod for the shot. I then tidied up the black background in post processing.

No Crocosmia were harmed in taking this photo.

Keith Burton club has replied to Herb Riddle club
Thanks Herb...........I've got quite a large clump of these in my garden, but they get overshadowed by the fence, so I'm going to try moving them when it's drier.

Glad you like the shot.

What a brilliant idea Keith. There must be a very similar looking plant that I have in my garden, we call it Mombretia and the flower is rampant in the garden - it's like having an orange carpet sometimes. I will try the idea of a coloured card behind some flowers to take a picture - wonderful idea that.
