Observations - Flowers: Finding Voice, Finding Self

It is often said 'life is a journey.' The photos here represent a part of this ongoing journey, the odyssey of living life. Enabled and emboldened, I've found and crafted another aspect of my visual voice. Shooting flowers are as much devotion as they are a joy! Along with what I call a bees-eye view, and passion, I take time to smell the flowers non-stop.

My intention is to take a viewer past the commonality of looking at a flower to experience a flower as more of a solid object. To lose sight of its' fragility and perhaps see them sometimes as solid and sculptural, and other times whatever they might imagine.

As a viewer’s eyes move over emerging forms, they subtly absorb other interacting elements of light, focus, texture, color, contrast, etc which all act together revealing a new visual experience with a flower. A viewer travels along this obvious but hidden journey of an aspect of life with flowers.
