quick before the sun goes down

i worked today on putting my fabricated apples into context and i thought the best way to do this would be to photograph them in situe, so off i went to do so. Unfortunately i only had access to experimental apple designs, so when my exhibitions over i would like to re-shoot an build up an array of photographs. These photographs, especially the ones of the apple treated with dye i believe are asthetically beautiful and fitting to the trees so i would like to, if i could, either propose a small exhibition to a local garden center where i would be able to hang all of my apples, or speak to my local wild flower center at court hey and see if i oculd exhibit inside there center in one of their trees. Il keep you updated on what happens.







As you can see, i played around as much as i could with the apples in context in relation to plants as i looked at trees in parks, aswell as house plants and plants in back yards etc. I believe that the apples int he trees work best as that is where you would expect to find apples, but photographs such as the apple in the vines are equally exciting, just in different ways. Instead of being excited because of how cohesive the works are together, i was instead excited by how juxtaposing the works were, textile with vines,but because of the colours use, one cohesive piece is still achieved i believe.











This one is my favourite image of the day. The pinks and reds of the apple are complemented with the pale yellows and browns of the surrounding leaves, especially when the hanging leaves are hit by the deminishing sun, acting as stained glass and almost tinting the photograph. It evokes warm and homely feelings for me at least of brisk autumn days.
