Flowers, from any perspective, have a powerful presence and mesmerizing beauty. Their perceived serenity… the grace of petals and stems...the explosions of color against color...sometimes a delicate, ethereal quality…the subtleties of light on petals as they are opening.
A new, different and wonderful vision appears when one looks through a close-up lens. Shapes, lines, patterns and textures are emphasized. Colors, unseen from a distance, become intense and captivating. In some, the light seems to glow from within beaconing into a mystical world. Focusing even more closely, any sense of scale or distance is diminished and one is left to their own imagination.
