This image is of overlapping petals of a flower. The edges of the petals are white and the centers are light shades of gray. The ends of the petals are pointed and they get smaller as they get closer to the center of the flower. There appear to be several overlapping flower petals and some stems on the right side of the image. The flower appears to be in a swirl pattern and some white lines can be seen on the petals at the outer images of the graphic.
