The Office Plants

"Seek. Professional. Help." - Alan Mackenzie-Morris


This was actually my boss's suggestion: I've been growing Peace Lilies at work, and at the beginning of 2005, one of them started to flower. I wanted to take photos of the flowers, and my boss suggested keeping track of them as they developed. This idea made even more sense when I discovered that the other two were developing flowers as well!

Yet again, the level of detail in these shots has amazed me. I've even printed them out on a colour laser printer and, OK, 72dpi doesn't get you very far in print, but they all look great at arm's length. The blurring in some of the pictures is caused by my arm moving as I press the shutter button, but even with that slight judder, the pictures look great. If only I could get more consistant lighting... Preferably of the natural variety, rather than electrical.

Get me outta here!
