The Best Photo of The Week: Still Life

Hi everyone!

This is my entry for THE BEST PHOTO OF THE WEEK

In my photo archive I found previously unpublished photos. As it turned out, there are a lot of such photos, like any photographer's. I hope you know what I mean. These are my summer still life experiments. A bouquet of fading roses in a vase. The fallen petals bring some dynamics, don't they? It''s too minimalistic, isn't it? In addition to composing the composition, I used additional light. A kind of play of light and shadow. I did not always succeed. Sometimes I didn't like the result. The possibility of post processing gives the photo some chance. Or am I not right?

"The roses withered.
Their petals have changed color.
Faded.
Their fragrance is gone...
Is it time to throw away the wilted buds?"

According to new explanations from @sardrt for THE BEST PHOTO OF THE WEEK contest, I have to stick to the rules.
I understand these simple requirements. I ran a contest myself once, and I was always surprised by those contestants who intentionally broke the rules.

The rules are very simple:

1 Rule. DO NOT STEAL THE PHOTOS.
2 Rule. Only participate with one photo per week
3 Rule. Write a short text of at least 200 words.

I tried to meet all the conditions.

Enjoy life!
