Constellation
You've seen this flower before, but it's been a while (please see the first comment). This sturdy little thing of (to me) unknown ID, blooming for a very long time despite being exposed to the cold late autumn temperatures on our balcony, had been my photographic "lockdown past time" along with the weekly MM assignments which helped a lot during one of the many lockdowns, and I can't believe that this is almost four years ago – time seemed to have stopped in those years.
I photographed this humble yellow beauty from all sides, at different times of the day/evening, and with different lenses throughout a couple of weeks. At one point, I had the idea to use the spray bottle to jazz it up a little bit with "nature's jewels". The yellow bokeh balls in the background are lights in the windows of a house right across the street, and they reminded me of a stellar constellation, hence the title.
This image has been waiting on my hard drive almost forever, fully processed and ready to upload, so I don't recall any of the processing steps. Judging from the looks, I'm sure that Analog Efex was involved, but that's it ;)
Happy Sliders Sunday, Everyone!
