The work: "Zeeland Knot with abstract painterly reflection" is a photograph of a small flower of a Zeeland Knot (or Astrantia Major). This cream-white-coloured flower lies on a reflective background. The lighting and the texture in the material create a picturesque abstract reflection of the flower in the ground surface. The reflection shows the Zeeuw Knoopje from a different angle, giving a nice effect in the photo.
I kept the depth of field quite small in this photo. As a result, the front petals are largely in focus and the further you move away from this, the blurrier the flower becomes. I chose these settings to give a sense of calm and depth in the photo. If you zoom in on the photo, you can see this nicely.
This calm photo with its soft (pastel) colours of a Zeeland Knot can hang beautifully as wall decoration in a waiting room, practice room, bedroom, hallway or simply above the sofa! And of course also beautiful on the wall in an office or study (business)!
