A continuation with the use of colour reversal. A dying avocado is darkening, now black rather than dark green/green, against the green backdrop. I kept to the continual minimal theme and use of the candle-stick "plinth.




Below, these work well, as the split avocado mimics a flame, given its shape and internal layers on show. 


The composition of these images (below) intrigued myself. How, I'm not quite sure. Likely the shape the subject takes in mirroring itself. The objects make no sense together - a cotton reel and avocado, but  in my own opinion this adds a 'certain something' to its unusualness. The unusual pairing, the unusual shape, the unusual set-up - it's all irrational but potentially as a visual piece, it may work. In my opinion it certainly draws my own eye.



These photographs take on the same form as previously experimented, with use of reflection. However, as 'pretty' as they may be these specific experiments hold little meaning, lacking depth. 




The mass amount of empty space and minimalism makes an interesting image. The avocado seed lays central, and the mass green space signifies its green future ahead, with space to grow. 

 






 



Another continued experiment with slicing objects for illusion. The dried vines of the grapes give extra detail to composition, leading to another fairly abstractive image when it comes to looking at the shapes within the composition. 








Much like the minimal image with the avocado seed - but the grape is withering, the background red (blood/death) and empty, implying the nothingness it will have ahead of it - death.
