"Close-up of an Astrantia Major (Zeeland Knotweed)" is a macro photo of a piece of a Zeeland Knotweed (Astrantia Major), where the depth of field has been chosen to create a soft dreamy image (where only a small piece is in focus).
This ensures that attention is drawn to the few "flowers" of the Astrantia Major and the leaves at the front.
To get an idea of the size of this little scene: this is only a few centimetres in size. But by using a macro lens, it is possible to photograph very small parts, opening up a whole new world!
Wonderful for the bedroom, study or waiting room, for example, but of course also just above the couch in the living room!
