Grape twigs 1
Taken for an assignment group, PCA, www.flickr.com/groups/473537@N20/.
WIT. I had never heard of Karl Blossfeldt before this assignment. When I looked at some of his photographs I thought they were very cool. However, as I looked at more and more I thought how boring! His photos a great but to spend a whole life just doing this? I don't have that kind of attention span.
As I walked around my garden I notice a grape vine and saw the little devices the plant uses to climb. I tried to take some pictures in situ but not very successfully. So I clipped a handful and then had my granddaughter, Annabelle, age 9, who is very artistic, help me to arrange them on a white board. Just natural light from a cloudy sky. In Photoshop i sharpened, adjusted the curves and converted to sepia.
