ART DROP #2, JULY 2023. LIMITED RELEASE CLOSED, PRINTS UNAVAILABLE.


This month we are featuring a midsummer hand bouquet made as spring gave way to summer and spoiled us with colors and shapes well worth arranging. Getting each element just so was a race against wilt, and a challenge of one-handed dexterity going from garden sheers to flower over and over again, and finally onwards to camera. As with all of my hand bouquet photographs, once the composition was complete and the picture was made there was a moment of hesitation before I let go of the flowers – did I get the shot? Any last adjustments to make? Once satisfied, I had to trust that I'd gotten what I intended to capture and there was nothing left to do but let the flowers go.
