"A simple still life: Snail shell with warm colours with a turquoise background" is a macro photo of a kind of snail shell (already abandoned) lying on a mirrored ground surface. As a result, you can also see the snail shell, upside down, reflected in the ground plane. The background colour runs from one corner at the top from light turquoise with a gradient through to the other corner at the bottom to a slightly darker shade of turquoise that goes towards a petrol-like colour.
The focus is on the front of the snail shell (at the start of the spiral). Because I chose a moderate depth of field, it creates a sense of depth in the work. If you zoom in on the photo, you can see this very well!
This work could hang beautifully as wall decoration in the bedroom, hallway, dining room, kitchen or just above the sofa! (Also, of course, beautiful in business spaces such as on the wall in a meeting room, office, waiting room or practice room!)
