For my micro shots, I started to put more emphasis on the visual surrealism and abstraction of my shots.
In this first photograph, it may at first look like a double exposure image or one that has been created in visual editing software, but it is however the reflection of the trees in a small puddle that was formed on a blue bench at the front of the university. I really liked this shot because, as the cameras focus was on the image of the tree branches and top of the university building reflected in the puddle, the edges of the puddle and the blue paint of the bench blur together almost as if it is the surface of a watercolour painting.
The light shining through the trees projected the branches a blocky silhouettes and I feel that this helped wit the aesthetic of the photograph because the lack of detail and visual information means the person looking at it needs to take a further moment to fully see the object being presented to them as these tree branches reflected in water could, at first glance, look like other things such as veins or tree roots.
I think the vivid blue colour of the bench and the murky colour of the puddle water also help to highlight the surreal atmosphere of this photograph as it is not often that these colours are found around us, and combining this with the unusual imagery, creates a unified surreal experience throughout this whole photo.
The world's first vegan fish, Scomberomorus maculates scervellato.

Marine biologists have confirmed it classes as a plant as it is genetically simpler than plankton which falls just within the animal kingdom.
