In this week’s challenge, Jen set this task – to show a minimalist photo.
She said, in part, “Minimalist photography is characterized by a large portion of negative space, a fairly monochromatic colour palette with good contrast, and an interesting subject that is able to stand on its own to capture the interest of the viewer.”
My submission is this beautiful single Calla Lily (Zantedeschia), photographed from directly above, on a dark table, with the base of the vase barely visible!

The damage to unopened palm fronds is a good example of “fraying”. The second photo shows a native Sulphur Crested Cockatoo (Cacatua galerita), the ‘vandal’ that causes this fraying. It is the beaks and claws that do the damage, rather than simple ‘rubbing’, but the result lasts for the life of the frond.
This entry is my response to the challenge of what ‘fray’ means to me. Other entries will be found over at The Daily Post here
