Coming Upon Amber

These delicate flowers live in a leafy cropping so dense that the leaves themselves are almost black. I did nothing to tweak the colours here… the gorgeous amber colour of the petals is exactly what my naked eye saw. Perhaps the dark indigo-green leaves gave the contrast needed to make the petals look so vibrant; I don’t know. You might not see it clearly here, but the stems were a reddish-brown… a colour that was also visible in the veins of the leaves and on their tips. It is a beautiful plant!
