"Rural in natural colours: Dried wheat" is a photograph of a bunch of wheat lying on a reflective surface. There is a texture in this reflective surface, creating an abstract painterly reflection of the wheat in the ground surface. A simple image that exudes tranquillity. With the natural colours of the wheat and a calm beige-grey background, I think this photo has a rather rural feel.
When taking this picture, I chose to set the camera so that in a shallow depth of field in the photo, this creates not only a sense of depth in the work, but also a dreamy calm atmosphere. If you zoom in on the photo, you can see this.
For example, this work could hang beautifully as wall decoration in the bedroom, dining room, hallway or just above the sofa! Also beautiful in business locations such as on the wall in a meeting room, office waiting room or practice room!
