Zephyr

My brief stint with macro photography opened up a world of intricacy I hadn't known existed. Under the influence of the macro lens, I became intoxicated with details of plants and flowers I hadn't ever trained my eye to see before. One of my favorite things to photograph and examine was the internal structure of flowers and their pistils and stamen. Zephyr was modeled after the core of a hibiscus flower, blown up to proportions which the human eye can not overlook.
