Natural Curls

I have more Cruise Night shots and may post later, but now I want to switch gears (so to speak). The next few posts are from another one of my projects entitled "The Art of Growing Old". I like to photograph fresh flowers, but sometimes feel like the shots are way too predictable. So to mix things up I often switch to wilting flowers, where I find the petals transform the flower into unpredictable and unique shapes that I often find more interesting.

So fascinating. It reminds me of a spider whose legs are curled. V

They do look like miniature air mattresses! A thinking outside of the box way to photograph flowers, I like it.

It looked like wood shavings from a plane to me a first glance.

Fading flowers can be beautiful too, as shown in this very interesting and very cool example. V

an arresting image, and fascinating how the petals have folded up as if grasping at their last moments of life...at the same time they seem inflated like miniature air mattresses..
