Probably one of my favourite flowers in the Peony. I love how the flower heads have petals that overlap thus giving layers of delicate petals. When shooting in monochrome and the colour is stripped away, the shadow and light on the petals give delicate tones of white and greys and give the image depth with form and shape.

With its bold black background with the flower being the central focal point, this image would be magnificent either within a home or a business with is commercial appeal.
