"Half a fluff ball" is a macro photo of a fluff ball of a Tragopogon.
A Tragopogon (also called Morgenster in the Netherlands) is a flower very similar to a dandelion. They are also related to each other, the Composite family or Asteraceae. After flowering, the flower turns into a beautiful ball of fluff, just like a dandelion. Only the fluff looks different. The fluff of the Tragopogon looks a bit like cobwebs. Very small droplets of water easily stick to these "cobwebs" as can be seen here. This is almost impossible to see with the naked eye, but the beauty of macro photography is that you can capture such details. If you zoom in on the work, you can see this!
For example, this work could hang beautifully as wall decoration in the kitchen, dining room or just above the sofa! Of course also beautiful in business locations such as on the wall in a meeting room, office, waiting room or practice room!
