Watch your backs...
I was having a difficult time finding a shot on this particular day. I don't know. Things just weren't clicking.
Then out of nowhere, this shows up. The flowers had a natural vertical configuration and the stems were not decayed. The green acted as a natural color balancing agent to the pink tulips. All I had to do was to get the bright concrete floor out of the background. It didn't do much maneuvering to get some faded red and dark green in the background. Then slightly twisting the camera created the diagonal movement from bottom right to top left.

Love it, Tony. I tried this a few weeks ago with an Orchid growing in my house. I wasn't too pleased with the colors, so I converted it to B&W.

I'm going to try this more often until I perfect the technique.
Just keep looking around until you find the right subject. All flower backs are not created equal!
That's gorgeous! Very original.
