Black and white photographic study using high-contrast lighting technique against deep background. Flower displays radial petal arrangement with central disk composed of small florets. Lateral stem visible in lower frame. Reflective surface beneath specimen produces mirror-like shadow. Image employs directional backlighting to emphasize textural details, petal striations, and volumetric form. Tonal range spans from bright highlights on outer petals to deep shadows in peripheral areas, creating dimensional separation between subject and environment.
