There is a beauty of a photo of Joe Ghio's ENTANGLED posted by Robin Shadlow
this evening on Iris-photos. On the left side of the upper part of the fall
the veins show in the negative as in Laurie's question. It appears the
pigment in this case is in the inter-vein spaces but not much expressed in the
veins.
The *inner glow* as it occurs in Entangled is as much a product of the
apricot-salmon-pink pigments in the heart of the flower as it is of the lack
of anthocyanins. The anthocyanin-free hafts so conspicuous in some luminatas
are not so obvious here.
