Some call this Flowerotica?

The human body as a landscape/decor...

This one with green flower-balls, Asclepias fruticosa fruits, they are light and may look spiky but they aren't, no model was harmed during the making of this image, LOL... part of an original set for an exhibition "SALON des DAMES".

SWAN MILKWEED…

Gomphocarpus fruticosus: Asclepias fruticosa is the old botanical name, Narrowleaf cotton bush, Swan bush, Swan milkweed the popular ones.

Inflated green and later light brown, papery pod or follicle; short bristly hair cover the outer surface; dark seeds have silvery cotton wool-like attachments that facilitate wind distribution.

Asclepias fruticosa is a species of milkweed native to South Africa.

Brought this from Sardinia to photograph in my studio… what happened next?

 

Due to the heat given off by the lights in the studio, the pods started to open and the pod opened and released the seeds.

Hundreds of seeds fluffing from that one pod.

In a matter of minutes all of the seeds floated out of the pod.

Once the process of release started, it could not be stopped.

I loved shooting this small miracle of nature in my studio.

THANK you, M, (*_*)
