"Natural rural colours: A fluffy bulb of a Morning Star (Tragopogon)" is a macro photo of a small piece of a Tragopogon (Also called a Morning Star in the Netherlands). A Tragopogon is related to the dandelion. They belong to the composite family (Asteraceae). When the flower of this plant has finished flowering, it turns into a beautiful ball of fluff, just like a dandelion. However, this ball of fluff is different. The fluff has a kind of cobweb-like structure, to which small (dew) droplets stick nicely. You can also see this in this photo. If you zoom in on the work, you can see this clearly. You can also see that the depth of focus in this photo is low. This creates a dreamy effect and also gives a sense of depth to the work.
For example, this work could hang beautifully as wall decoration in the bedroom, kitchen, hallway or just above the sofa! Also beautiful in business locations such as on the wall in a meeting room, office or waiting room!
