Rose in Grey

Posted by Mirko Herzner (Mühlheim am Main, Germany) on 28 June 2008 in Plants & Nature and Portfolio.

Close-up shot of a rose. Colors have been desaturated leaving only a small remainder of red. I am not quite sure if I like this experiment. What do you think?

Interessantes Postprocessing, oder ist das eine neue Züchtung? ;-)

I think it's really cool. It seems like maybe it is beginning to fade...but fade in or out, that is the question. Nice work!
