"The warm colours of a piece of star anise (extreme close-up)" is a macro photo of part of a star anise. When making this photo, I chose a shallow depth of field, which means that part of it is in focus (the heart of the star anise and part of the upper edges of the star anise) and the rest becomes increasingly blurred, the farther it is from the focus point. This creates depth in the work. The warm colours of the star anise also immediately give the work a warm (autumnal) cosy atmosphere. The woody structure of the outside of the star anise gives it a natural feel at the same time. Association: calm, zen, nature, abstract, brown tones, warmth, autumn
This work could, for example, be beautifully hung as wall decoration in the kitchen, dining room or restaurant. But it could also just hang above the sofa
