Nigella Recto, photo by Harold Davis.

This is the front and back (recto above, and verso below) of a small flower with an incredibly complex structure, a Negilla. The common name, which should be said mit feeling, is Love-in-the-mist.

I had absolutely no idea of photographing this flower from the back. But after photographing the front from the top down, I turned the flower over and saw that underneath it was more colorful, and even more complex, than from the front.

By the way, you may be interested to see some of my work for sale, reproduced on canvas, as giclee prints on photo paper, or as giclee prints on Arch paper at PosterCartel.
