"Black Dahlia"

Love the structure of pompom dahlias and wanted to show that to its best advantage.

Biography: I have always enjoyed photography, wanted to make a career out of it, I grew up envisioning life as a travel writer/photographer. Parental pressure saw me forget that idea and go work in an office. Then decades spent raising a family, the idea of being a professional photographer slowly disappeared. I never did lose the joy photography brought me though, and now, finally retired, I have the time to commit to it more. I am enjoying learning new techniques, including having some post processing fun, which I tend to pursue further.
