Photograph: Fallen Flower

This black and white photograph was taken with the Rollei 35 TE.  It was for a project called "Irony" and the irony is a little subtle.  It may be too subtle for you to readily see.  I used Kodak Tri-X film with an aperture setting of f/8 and a shutter speed of 1/500 sec.  Here is the photograph.  The irony is explained below.




This photograph is ironical because in this beautiful, artificial landscape with gravel, plastic flowers and the painted, iron sculpture, a single flower has blown in and is lying just below the sculpture of leaves and flowers.
