Backgrounds for Flower Pictures

Backgrounds for Flower Pictures

When looking at flowers you need to consider the background. Honeysuckle is a good rambling climber that often allows you to see the flower against the clear blue sky (or cloudy one for that matter).

The pollen bearing, male anthers,  (stamen and filaments)   are clearly visible on this picture as is the female carpel in the centre and as a seed pod on the right.

Many  flowers are best inspected against a mass of greenery that forms the pattern of leaves and stems.

Careful planning can balance two or more colours such as pink flowering Japanese anemones with the purple leaved Cotinus. Grey leaved plants look good with dark flowers in the same way light flowers look good with dark leaves.
