During Lockdown in 2020 I started to walk in the local fields, on my allotment and then at local gardens as they began to re-open. Flowers are easy to find without much travel but whilst I wanted to show their individual beauty I also wanted to depict a more creative aspect.
These examples often combine both Macro with selective focus with ICM to make a more painterly background. One or two are picked from my allotment and photographed at home, but the majority are in situ outside. Their beauty was a great remedy to a rather ugly time and situation.
