Creative Ideas with decaying fruit and textures

Decaying quince and metallic foil with textural form collage

Look what your fruit bowl can deliver !

I was just about to go past the fruit bowl when I noticed a great shot just sitting waiting, a decaying quince had a fantastic form with amazing colors and the light on it was just perfect so I took some shots. The other items in the collage are a macro shot of a woven flax kete basket, and a solar shower that had drops of water condensed on the top against a black background and the green is the base of a recycled heavy glass vase that adds a touch of brilliance. You will see my amazing quince against a background of metallic silver and that is a car shield for the sun but I thought it gave great reflective qualities to my quince.

Wonderful Moss Garden - Natures Own Abstract Art

What do you all think of this as natures very own handiwork ? This could almost have been duplicated in a tapestry or made into one of Kaffe Fassett's tapestrys or  knitted works of art or painted into a giant artwork don't you think ? This macro image was one of a very small clump of moss on a concrete step - just goes to show what can happen when you view things differently - we've probably all been just walking over these amazing shots and not giving them a second glance.  Try looking at everyday things like moss, slimy gutter pipes,  mould and rust through your macro lens and see what you can see. Taken again with my trusty Nikon Coolpix of course !   On its macro setting. You too can take awesome shots just seek and you will find :)
