Photographing native flora from the Southern Hemisphere is always interesting as they are so structural and textural. The challenge is to emphasise their detail without them looking rigid and static. I chose a plain black background to emphasise the detail and beauty of this king protea (Protea cynaroides) without any distractions, so that all you see is its raw beauty and its graceful arcing stem.
