"Summer time! Sunny orange with red Gerbera" is a macro photo of a piece of a beautiful Gerbera (cut flower). This flower has warm colours running from red at the heart of the flower to orange-yellow at the outer petals. This gives a warm summer feeling, the Gerbera looks just like the sun, where the rays (here the petals) run from the heart. This photo was taken with a good macro lens, which allows you to photograph smaller things than you normally can with a regular lens.
Around and in the heart of the Gerbera, you can see the pollen grains. If you zoom in on the photo you can see this. The background has a petrol - turquoise-like colour. This gives a good contrast to the flower, making the whole picture feel even more colourful.
This picture could hang beautifully (on ArtFrame or aluminium, for example) in the living room, dining room or just above your bed in the bedroom.
