Description
I'm never quite sure which way to view a cyclamen blossom - with their upswept petals, they look upside down from almost any angle. The flowers have five petals and each one is on a stem, bent 150-180 degrees at the tip, that arises from a tuber; this gives the flower the downward facing appearance. Here I have presented a single bloom and treated the image to a subtle, linen-like texture that sets it off beautifully.
