Photographer David Gilman's series of botanical shots is described as being 'saturated in elegance and beauty'.
A departure from his past photographic color or sepia monotone projects, this series of images was made in studio rather than outdoors.
According to the artist: "The series began when I photographed a floating begonia in a ceramic bowl to test a new lens. The decoration of the rim of the bowl mimickedthe shape of the flower and added to it's energy. I found a new subject to explore when I looked at the image. I find ceramic and glass bowls at our local thrift shops and the flowers are from our garden. I'm showing a part of the series that uses round vessels and are reminiscent of mandalas and offer the viewer a contemplative experience.
