Post-Dorsky viewing
I've been thinking about the textures of plants, and of natural light hitting plants in various ways after having the privilege of viewing all six films in Nathaniel Dorsky's Arboretum Cycle. These films, as Dorsky has described them, are plants in themselves, filled with light.
These pictures I've taken here can in no way be associated with the intense poetry of Dorsky's work. Instead they're evidence that, after seeing the films, I have been inspired to see light in new and different ways.
The first few pictures were taken in rare afternoon light in Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens, that made everything glow for a brief window of time:
