Developmental Work 1

For this shoot I wanted to demonstrate the flowers lifecycle, starting from a full flower with all it's petals, going through the stages of a dying flower losing its petals one by one, to end with just the discarded petals.
It shows the track of the flowers decay, and the different stages it goes through from a fully bloomed flower to a pile of forgotten petals...

This is following on from keeping a track of yourself and your journey or routine to keeping a track of natural things such as flowers or food and there journey from living
to decaying and then becoming nothing.

This is a more interpretive portrayal of the flowers decay, in my third development it shows the literal portrayal of flowers decay and also food. For this development I wanted to portray the petals falling off the flower much like they would if they were decaying but in a 'pretty' way rather than the true decay of flowers where they lose their shape and become discoloured. I edited these photos in photo shop to make them appear brighter. I enhanced the colours to portray the more desirable look of flowers rather than the real 'ugly' decaying of plants.
