This piece satisfies my need to see nature in detail.  If I could walk around with a magnifying glass, I would, just to see all the marvellous miracles on display in every leaf, blossom, and tree bark.  Getting up close and personal is the best way see nature.  Less focus on the external clutter and peripheral distractions.  Here one can see the complexity of nature. Then, one can truly appreciate the structure and functions of plants – how they grow, develop, multiply and survive – some for millions of years. In this piece, I focused on a gum blossom. There’s a flowering gum in my neighbourhood that I always admire.  And because the stamen filaments are what catches the eye, I chose to make that stage centre.
