Poppies are a very visually dramatic flower. I used tones of both scarlet and orange to accentuate each petal, along with a shadowy black. The mixture of red, scarlet and orange proved beautiful but scanners and cameras are sometimes unable to distinguish between the three hues, which are all very similar. Sometimes it feels as though the camera/device chooses the hue that is most powerful or dominant. In this case, red is the deepest hue and more dominant than orange and scarlet — so red is the color that appears most visible in some images. Some, not all.
