Calendula
I have always been an admirer of those beautiful Victorian botanical prints which were made by various explorers in their quest for knowledge during the period of global exploration and discovery. Whilst looking through some Audubon bird prints I came across some of his beautiful botanical drawings and thought that it would be nice to try to emulate some of these photographically. This is one of the series of ten images with many thanks to John James Audubon for the inspiration.
