Photograph of green cactus against a blue sky.
Phoenix Desert Botanical Gardens
f/6.3 – 1/250 sec – ISO 100 – Focal Length 150 mm

Continuing with this week’s “theme” of color this image represents analogous colors on the color wheel.  That is two or more colors that are next to or adjacent on the color wheel.  It also shows how the composition of a photo can be played with.  The gut reaction to photographing a cactus such as this would be to either fill the frame with all cactus or step back and get it along with its surroundings.  But by just capturing a small portion of the cactus against the sky I got an almost abstract image.
