Noir Flowers

bucket of flowers

This week’s photo blog challenge was to use Film Noir to tell a story. I’ll be honest, the story behind this photo is far from moody- I was picking up flowers for my mom and my friends before Valentine’s Day. However, while I was at the kiosk I read a pamphlet describing the different meanings behind flowers and flower colors. For example, yellow roses mean friendship, and red roses mean romance. So when there is no color in your shot, how can you tell which colors are which?
