"Warm colours: Nature's fluff in the light" is a macro photo of a small piece of a beautiful fluffy ball of a Tragopogon. As light falls on part of the fluff, different shades are created: cream, beige, taupe and sometimes even almost golden.
The background that is still vaguely visible through the fluff has a warm earthy colour. This makes the fluff stand out a little from the background because it is not the same colour, but it matches it well.
Because I chose a shallow depth of field, the fluff gradually fades from the part where the focus is (This is at the transition from stalk to fluff at the fluff ending diagonally on the left side just above the centre). If you zoom in you can see this clearly and you can also see immediately what kind of effect this gives.
This creates a sense of depth in the photo and also creates a kind of tranquillity.
A photo I would write down myself as warm, natural and rural.
