I just love how white Mums look against a black background. I took two beautiful crysanthemums and placed them in a blue ceramic pitcher. I added a few oranges to a clear glass goblet, and put an earthy terracotta pot on the side. I was happy with this lovely display.
White Chrysanthemums on Black
Two white chrysanthemums are showcased against a black background, highlighting their delicate petals and radiant appearance. The lighting accentuates the intricate details of each bloom and the contrast between the green and white petals.
Chess, Hat, and Flowers
While shopping for interesting items to use for s still life, I came upon a pretty green candle and a black chess piece–a king. I decided to create a magical fantasy. I placed a green spherical ceramic vase, a black chess piece, a green hat, and green patterned cloth on a tan drop cloth which I used as a table cloth. I added some white daisies to the vase. I then incorporated a green glass vase with pink blooming lilies, and a green lit candle on a bronze candle holder. My theme was the color green and various complementary colors. This arrangement was photographed against a white backdrop in my studio. I added a brownish, orange texture during editing. The lighting is soft and subdued.
White Lilies
I just love white lilies against a black background. Here are three similar yet different images of white lilies. I hope you enjoy these pictures and love them as much as I do. I enjoyed taking these beautiful pictures.
White Daisies Still Lifes
I had some beautiful white daisies that I used to do some Still Lifes. Previously I had sculpted a head out of clay and thought it would make for an unusual addition to these photos. I also added some green apples, and a red candle complete with smoke. I think white flowers always look lovely on a black background. So, here are my latest Still Lifes which are somewhat different than my usual images. I enjoyed working on these and I hope you enjoy them too.
White Daisies and Books
I love white daisies against a black background so I decided to do a still life of white daisies in a metal pitcher, with books, and glasses. I have two different versions: one without the apple, and one with a green apple that offsets the green in the middle of the daisies. I like them both and I cannot decide which one is better. I only have two in this post because I actually took numerous shots of the same thing until I was satisfied.
