La Beauté – Sam Stapleton
It’s All Around Us
Wildlife photographer Sam Stapleton studies the disparity between the delicate beauty of flowers and a rigid environment in his still-life series, which showcases soft florals— Peruvian lilies, in this case—frozen in ice. He illuminates each arrangement from underneath to highlight the details in the flowers and ice, giving a closer look he hopes will encourage viewers to examine the contrasting elements.
