Panorama of water droplets on a Tragopogon by Marjolijn van den Berg

"Panorama of water droplets on a Tragopogon" is a macro photograph of a small piece of a morning star, on which there are all very small water droplets. These water droplets create a nice effect because they often reflect pieces behind them. If you zoom in on the work, you can see this very well. Then you can also clearly see how the focus is. The shallow depth of field creates depth in the work and a dreamy atmosphere.
Like the dandelion, a Tragopogon (also known as Morgenster) is a member of the Composite family (Asteraceae). When the flower has finished flowering, it turns into a ball of fluff. The fuzz on this fuzz ball carries the seeds, which can thus be transported by the wind. The structure of the fluff of the Tragopogon does differ from that of the Dandelion. The Tragopogon has cobweb-like fluff as you can see in this work and this is where drops stick well.
This work has mainly pastel colours of the fluff and a turquoise - petrol coloured background and a cheerful look. It makes me feel happy and summery! A little piece of summer nature for your wall. This piece could, for example, hang beautifully as a wall decoration in the bedroom, dining room 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!
