In this series I have tried to investigate and portray, with my images, the unique semblance of diversity in the various species of plants found in nature.
This may be displayed through a sense of complexity; embracing colour manifestations; or exhibiting strong visual characteristics. Often they may be seen as fragile; or providing a sense of protection due to their size and diminished colour.
There is often a tactile feeling that provides another dimension to the image. So frequently, we are oblivious to the wonderful sense of movement that a plant is constantly revealing.
How enchanting it is to feel a close relationship to the many forms of nature.
