A beautiful pattern of light and shadow, this photo was taken of a metal lid of a pan. The stainless steel of the pan always shines beautifully under the light of the cooker hood and this inspired me to take a photo of it. With the right lighting and background, I took this photo. A nice shadow pattern can be seen on the metal which is the result of the soft light coming from the corners. The handle is visible because there is a beautiful framing of light. The shadow of the handle has a special whimsical shape. In this photo, there is actually very little sharpness; almost everything is blurred but this gives a nice effect and creates a special atmosphere. In the original image, there was not much colour so I converted it to black and white. Without colour, the different light and dark shades are more visible and the different structures stand out more. Minimal sharpness in the photo also creates an almost abstract and mysterious effect. This photo fits perfectly in a modern kitchen, for example!
I see making art as a creative process.

I find my sources of inspiration in everything around me...
