"Rural simplicity: Hidden behind the drops" is a macro photo I took of a very small piece of a dandelion's fluffy bulb. Because of the vantage point I chose when taking this photo, the fluff that lies in the centre falls onto the heart behind. This makes the fluff with droplets stand out nicely because this background is darker than the fluff with droplets itself.
If you zoom in on the photo, you can clearly see how detailed this picture is. You can then also see that I chose a small depth of field. The focus is on the fluff, and the further you look to the front or back, the blurrier it gets. This creates a calmness in the photo. is because your eye is drawn to the middle fluff. It also gives a sense of depth to the photo. The blurriness of the background makes the fluff stand out clearly in the foreground.
This photo could hang beautifully as a wall decoration in the bedroom, dining room or just above the sofa in the living room, for example!
