"Gold - brown fluff with water droplets with petrol background" is a macro photo I took of a piece of a beautiful fluffy bulb of a Tragopogon. This plant is also called Morgenster in the Netherlands. The plant looks a bit like an ordinary dandelion, as after flowering the flower also turns into a fluffy ball. Only the fluff is different in structure. I would describe this fluff more as spiderweb-like compared to the kind of sprites of the dandelion fluff.
Because of the lighting, these fluffies are highlighted in a special way, giving them a nice look. When making this picture, I chose a shallow depth of field, this creates a sense of depth in the work and emphasises the front fluff, which gives it a kind of calmness.
This work could hang beautifully, for example, in the bedroom, study, dining room or simply above the sofa in the living room.
