"Square of fluff of a Morning Star (Tragopogon) with drops" is an (extreme) macro photo of fluff of a Morning Star (Tragopogon). In the foreground you can see two fluffies and in the background you can vaguely see other fluffies.
This work has a very calm, dreamy atmosphere and there is also a sense of depth in the work. This is because I chose a shallow depth of field in this picture. You can see this very well at the stems of the front two fluff pieces (the point where the stem turns into fluff). The focus is on this line. The further back or front you look, the more blurred the fluff becomes. The droplets also help to create this dreamy atmosphere, they reflect the light and this creates sparkles on the droplets. The background colour is turquoise and the fluff looks like gold.
This work could hang beautifully as a wall decoration in the dining room, bedroom, 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!
