Astrantia Major" is a macro photo of
a flower of an Astrantia Major (Zeeland knot). The lighting and editing have given this work a distinct atmosphere. On the one hand, I find it somewhat romantic and, on the other, somewhat dramatic (partly due to the dark purple-fuchsia colours).
The background is blended and generally dark in colour.
The focus of this photo is on the front "pistil - flower" and petals. The further back you look, the more the flower fades. This creates depth in the work.
This work could hang beautifully as a wall decoration in the bedroom, kitchen, hallway or just above the sofa! Also beautiful in business locations such as on the wall in a meeting room, office waiting room or practice room!
