I mentioned a few times that I hate shooting flowers. They're beautiful by default, don't require much skill and don't tell any story.

Deep purple trillium flower against a backdrop of its own big green leaves. The shot is made from a 3/4 angle, not face-on. One of the three petals is slightly bent down.
