White Dahlia

I am beginning a project to get three photographs of flowers for the family room wall above the TV. This is the first. It was a large (10 inch) flower on a two foot stem. Shortly after taking the picture the stem broke.. The original picture had too much green in the background to look good on the "Toast" colored wall, so I used photoshop to desaturate everything except the blossom.
