my virgin photography contest entry

nope it got nothing to do with breaking of the hymen or stuff. it's my foray into photography contest... i received an email invitation to enter a photography contest jointly organised by national geographic channel and nikon (http://www.ngcasia.com/nikon/eng/index.htm) - "yellow to me" theme. so i thought why not. the prizes are good. a nikon d80! but yellow? hmm. thought of taking a photo of company's van or something since it's so yellow but what's so passionate it's to me. besides looking forward towards the end of month, currently i'm not really excited working. hmm... unless i describe the photo as "yellow to me" is ... $$ = life = happiness. ha ha ha.
so i dig around. aha! i got many many sunflowers photos which are so yellow... well i love flowers. and i have loads of flowers' photo from my garden. i even have a photo of a siamese sunflower that i had grown... but decided against it as the photo quality isnt that great and nothing much to tell about it.

so i decided to submit the macro shot of the sunflower. gave it a catchy title - stigmata. dont know what to put for "yellow to me is...". well, life kua since i am submitting a flower with it's sex organs enlarged... description... hmm... read some where on meaning of yellow. so "copied" the idea.. yellow is earth where life sprouts ... then i continued yellow is the sun with it's life-sustaining rays (or something like tat)... the picture depicts the sunflower reproduction system which creates life and needs both the earth and sun? hmm.. sounds corny but hey, cant blame a gal for trying....
