Nice background! How do you make it? What flower is it? Best regards, Andrzej

  Hi Andrzej,
Thanks for your comments! The flower is called 'Bird of Paradise'. This is located in the shade at the side of my house. I underexposed the shot by 1 stop so that the background came out darker. But the flower was a little dark, too, so I used curves in Photoshop to hold the dark part in place while lightening up the flower.

  Nice work. It reminds me of a Road Runner, the bird.
