Love and Honour (Portrait)

The Floral fusion series is inspired by Dutch Golden Age painter Rachel Ruysch.  Using a modern form of photographic light painting the photographs are taken in the dark and a torch is used to illuminate the flowers and vessels.

The series is a reminder that we must remember that there is always, light in the dark.
