Against all darkness.

Against | All | Darkness

This is a photograph of flowers. And it is a photograph of darkness. It is also a photograph that I have no memory of taking since I developed this role of film 10 years after shooting it. Clearly I was attempting to experiment with night photography.

At first I thought I had used a flash, but I don't think so anymore.

Clearly this was a long-exposure of a flower pot under direct lighting at night. It has been so long since I used my tripod.

There's green in this photograph, so I feel that it fits with the continuing theme of this meat blog.

Minimalism.

Two | Lip | Leaves | I

Continuing on the theme of greenery. 2 things to point out.

1 - I like flowers as much as the next person, but what I really LOVE about flowers are their leaves and stems. tulips are no different.

2 - One of the most interesting things about flowers, and in plants in general, is the fact that they turn brown, yellow, orange or even red when the cease to be green. Scientists have an explanation for this, but I prefer to believe that they have just become bored with displaying just one colour for most of the year and have (consciously) chosen to change. For their sanity.

At one time I also told people that I believed flying insects to be small birds.
