Old Tree. Nikon D200. 17-55mm Nikkor f/2.8, at 48mm. ISO 800. 1/1000 sec at f/8. Copyright Joanne Mason 2012.
This old tree sits overlooking the ruins of an ancient pueblo settlement in Arizona. The image – which has been completely re-edited – was mislabeled in a previous posting. Originally tagged as being on the rim of Canyon de Chelly, the tree is actually much further west on the Wupatki plain. Click for larger.

Red Dahlia. Nikon D200. 105mm Micro-Nikkor f/2.8. ISO 800. 1/4000 at f/6.7. Sunlight with added ring flash. Image altered in Photoshop. Copyright Joanne Mason 2012.
This explosion of red is a giant Dahlia shot outdoors in bright sunlight. All Dahlia’s are dramatic, the drama here is heightened by the treatment in post. These New Series images seek to create more stylized and expressive florals through editing in Photoshop.

I believe the images produced in the New Series of florals make good designs for printing on fabric. I must explore that. These images are manipulated in Photoshop to produce a more stylized and impressionistic appearance.
