Perelandra

Nikki Trexel

Perelandra

A shot of some flower stems and buds that reminded me of space and the cosmos. And then of CS Lewis and his Space Trilogy, for some reason. I have yet to read it. But I love the name of that book.

Please see my Etsy listing for this image – and purchase a pearlescent metallic print of this mysterious image.

This photo is seen in two of my calendars – please take a look at them!

    Doing a lot of astronomy stuff… didn’t see that link.
    But it did remind me off something else, to do with the male contribution to having children :)
    And so I like it :)
    Also the very very shallow DOF and fine details in the focussed area

    A primary example of an initation to subjectiveness.
    nicely done… I am not sure what I think when I see this… which is obviously the objective here… I just know that I like it

    You haven’t read the Space Trilogy yet? You’ll love it! And these plants you’ve done come straight from Perelandra! By the flower and petal pics you’ve done, I would swear you had already read it!

    I’ve seen this numerous times and loved the explanation to go with it so i can’t for the life of me work out why i haven’t already left a comment?! I ADORE this image. From the colours to the angle it’s taken from; it’s magical to me : ) Thank you also for all your recent comments x

  • Nikki Trexel replied
