Perhaps because I am nearsighted, or maybe because I love the large scale flower paintings of Georgia O'Keefe, I am compelled to photograph flowers up close. Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden is a magnificent place, and focusing on all of its splendor can be sensory overload for me. That's why when I go I have to spend most of the day, savoring the many small fragments instead of the entire place, the single flower instead of the whole plant, sometimes only a leaf.
