Death of a flower

With the use of flowers in my last experiment I thought about instead of focusing on the death of a human and their decay through life, I would look more at death of the flower itself within this post.

There is a sense of beauty within the life of a flower from bud, to bloom through to the fallen crisp brown shell present at the base of the vase. In some ways you could associate his with the life cycle of a human from baby, to teen, adult through to elderly until death brings us back to the start.

Here I have created a sequence of photographs in which you can see the decaying of a flower in order to show this theory.

Here are some more photos of which show the flower within the process above;
