Macro Series

I've spent some time lately meditating on what I'd like to accomplish with my macro series, and concluded that I enjoy the rhythms and joyful movements of the lines found in nature... leaves and flower petals have beautiful flowing lines that sometimes do and sometimes don't follow patterns easily discernible by the casual viewer. I bought a few plants and experimented around a bit. Even though at the beginning of my experimentation (the previous post) i was mainly looking at leaves, with these photos I was focusing on flowers.

Here is the set, and here are some of my favorites:

In other news, I've been reading a lot lately. I read Sophie's World by Jostein Gaarder and The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. Both books were fascinating, probably more fascinating than anything I've ever read (except Harry Potter, but that's assumed).

Until next time!
