"Natural colours: A feather in many different shades of brown" is a macro photo of a very small piece of a beautiful pheasant feather. This feather has beautiful natural shades of brown. From light brown, beige, taupe to dark brown verging on black.
If you zoom in on the photo, you can see how detailed the picture is. Still, the depth of field in this photo is only small, where the feather bends back a bit, the feather slowly and gradually becomes fainter (as in the top left corner) This ensures that you get a sense of depth in the work, and not everything looks flat.
The pin in the centre of the feather is beautifully coloured and almost seems to be of a warm-coloured metal. This also creates a nice tessellation as it runs diagonally, from corner to corner.
This picture could, for example, hang beautifully in the hall, bedroom or study. Or just framed on a photo shelf!
