"Panorama of a Red Gerbera" is a macro photo of a red Gerbera with background in a different reddish colour. For the sharpness of this photo, I chose minimal sharpness (On the front part of the petals of the flower). The further you look to the sides or back, the more it decreases (macro photography). The photo is cropped to panorama size. This reduced sharpness creates a somewhat mysterious image, the Gerbera becomes more abstract, but still recognisable. Despite the warm red colours, it gives a kind of tranquillity. A warm, romantic image that moves towards the abstract.
This work could hang beautifully in, for example, a waiting room, dining room, study or, of course, simply the living room above the sofa.
