Street Flowers 4 (Single)
DESCRIPTION
“Street Flowers 4” focuses on the ephemeral and ever changing nature of being. The photograph is of flowers being sold from a stand on the Upper West Side. Color, light, and compositional changes were used to manipulate the elements within the photograph as to more fully express the protean nature of their beauty, and by reference, the beauty of all things.
