Clematis Closeup
Here is a closeup of a clematis thought I shot, the colors in this and the spiked stamens make this an interesting bloom to photograph, when I can’t get myself motivated to shoot I can always fall back on flowers to give me a subject worth working with.

About
Hello my name is Bernie Kasper and I am a photographer from Madison, a small town located in the Southeastern part of Indiana on the banks of the Ohio River, the area I call home has a rich diversity of topography and wildlife that make it a special place. From the canyons and waterfalls of Clifty Park to the wetlands of the Muscatatuck NWR the area is rich in photographic opportunities, hopefully I will be able to convey the beauty of the area and share any info as well about this place I call home

Very, very cool. Great textures and colors….
R(etc… )
Looks like a spider or Medusa’s hair-do. I find the colors to be alluring in this image also.
Blossoms are great for inspiration and motivation, aren’t they? Tha’s a very pretty shot!
I love that blue color, Bernie. Positioning the center of the flower off to the side gives the eye a chance to move back and forth between the colors. Very nice.

incredible color. great close up
I’ve been waiting for you to figure out how to do a three dimensional photo of a flower. Great work. Love the colors too.
Great shot. Great use of DOF.
Those are some of my favorite colors!
Whoa! This one blows me away. You’ve really got a great eye for the floral.

Oooh, wow–how awesome! Great detail & beautiful colors!
Beautiful image Bernie. I love the plane of focus you zeroed in on for some very fine details.
Hmm, very nice
Ever know anyone who had difficulty pronouncing the name of this flower?
I know what you are thinking, don’t go there !!
I like how you included the wave like ridges of the petals here Bernie. It makes this quite dynamic.
awesome photography as usual!
amazing blue/purple coloring!
Beautiful photo, Bernie! Love everything about it.
Don’t you just love it when nature presents itself? Nice shot Bernie!
Very sharp and well taken photo ! Nicely taken !
Bernie, this picture has made my day! The colors and quality are wonderful. It looks like fireworks on this 4th of July:-)
Bernie,I love your photography..Beautiful and colorful
I fell in love with this on your flickr site, its beautiful
I’ve never seen this color of clematis. I love it! I have deep blue delphinium growing in my backyard, though.
I love photographing clematis because there’s so much to work with. You’ve done a beautiful job capturing its beauty.
The color in this is amazing. You did a great job of capturing its center and color.
The colors are so vivid!
awesome colors! wow!
Flowers are always a good choice. They stay still for you and don’t complain.
Did you do much post processing on this? I don’t think I’ve ever seen a blue flower.
Wow…just astounding…I’m a freak for purple anyway but this is otherworldly…which is a lame word since it implies that beauty and wonder don’t belong in this world…who was it that said talking about art was like “dancing about architecture”?
Actually, I think it was talking about music…man, I can’t seem to talk about much of anything at the moment.
Cool picture.
thats a cool looking picture… i bet it would make a great place for a spider to hide!
