I was working on learning a new photo technique yesterday. The challenge was to create an image using negative space by focusing on a subject in the foreground and blurring the background. It was suggested to compose using complimentary colors. I was using macro settings photographing flowers in my garden and saw this tiny marigold bud lurking in the shadows, below the larger lemon-yellow blooms. It was a yellow green hue, but what a surprise to see the dark green surrounding foliage translated into blue-purple in the final image. I was very pleased with this result and posted it on FaceBook, Instagram and Google+ for my friends to enjoy too.
