Solarised Flowers
Solarised or Solarized prints is an old method of processing black and white or monochrome images. By fogging a black and white print during mid development, one could achieve a partial reversal of some of the tones and end up with a mixture of positive and negative tones in the final print. This image is the Photoshop equivalent which adds a powerful perspective to this image of flowers.
