In the image above, I used a macro photography image of Queen Anne’s Lace and simply varied the color palette. In a photo editing program such as PhotoShop, you can also “flip” the image as a layer, as seen in the green flower. Notice how the green flower emerges from the left side of the page versus the others that emerge from the right? That is a result of “flipping” your image layer.
Another option is to change your image to black and white. Go one step further, and “invert” your image, making what was white, black and what was black, white.

For my two floral photography prints of this zinnia, my original intent was not to make two different prints. During the editing process, however, I realized that I was drawn to both the pale pink zinnia and the sepia zinnia and simply could not choose between the two. The best part is that they are compatible and work effectively together as a print series. With this set, I can even go one further and create a black and white print. Hmmm…I wonder how this flower would look as an inverted white on black image?
