focus © Lilly Schwartz 2012

It really makes a difference on what detail of the whole picture we focus. True for photography and for life. Sometimes it’s really interesting to change your focus and go with an unintuitive approach for a bit. I’m not a big fan of flower pictures, since they often seem so boring, so with this I was trying to take a different approach. Not the colours, but the shapes. Not the blossoms, but the buds that aren’t quite there yet. So, this picture is really about the potential of things.
