Spring Photo Project, March 2015: Floral Landscapes

By Artborghi @artborghi

This is a research on creating landscape photography on plant subjects. Spring is blooming and high is the temptation of shooting single, static, wonderful objects like flowers and buds. However, where is the photographer interpretation in reproducing single objects? The creation of floral landscapes pushes the photographer to look for shape repetition, pattern development, light focusing, background uniformity, series building and contrast search. Below the results.

Colorful sticks

Winter fruits

New and old

New on old

Needles and spikes
