Dayonda
Excellent work. I think beauty is always relevant, but what do we define as beauty? It isn’t necessary the same from person to person, or culture to culture. Making a classical still life into an amazing electronic piece of art brings this from old to very relevant, too.
Is that a ring at the botton left side of the pic?
JonRussell replied
Thanks for that wonderful comment! Yes it is a ring, Its sentimental value for me, and I decided to include it in my candle light shots ;-)
