Imaginando que lo pequeño es grande y lo grande es pequeño
Imaginando que lo pequeño es grande y lo grande es pequeño, by Maqtiriri
Imaginando que lo pequeño es grande y lo grande es pequeño - Exposición múltiple en cámara(sin photoshop), compuesta en esta ocasión por tres imágenes tomadas por separado, a diferentes distancias focales e iluminada con linterna calida. Lo que he intentado en esta imagen es hacer que lo pequeño parezca grande y viceversa, para ello, la luna redimensiona y reafirma la sensación de noche y la piña quiere simular una cordillera de una montaña donde hay una seta gigante con luz propia que ilumina su entorno.

EL FANTASMA DE LA ORQUÍDEA
EL FANTASMA DE LA ORQUÍDEA - “....Cada orquídea se parece a un determinado insecto, así que el insecto se siente atraído por esa flor, su doble, su alma gemela, y no hay un anhelo mayor para él que hacerle el amor; cuando el insecto se aleja, divisa otra flor alma gemela y le hace el amor, polinizándola y ni la flor, ni el insecto entenderán jamás el significado de este acto de amor; pero cómo van a saber ellos que gracias a su danza el mundo sigue girando, y así por el simple hecho de hacer lo que están llamados a hacer ocurrirá algo grande y magnífico; en ese sentido nos enseñan a vivir, nos enseñan que el único valor de lo que tenemos es el corazón, que cuando descubres tu flor, no puedes dejar que nada te aparte de ella....” El ladrón de Orquídeas (Adaptación) Y si apagamos la luz, solo iluminando en diferente dirección e intensidad a cada una de las flores de una Orquídea, surge un fantasma...., que se va transformando....mientras que unas se miran al espejo..... ,otras se avisan de que algo está pasando...., otra parece un mono..., otra un mapache..., otra el genio de la lámpara..., otra un dragón...... Todavía hoy sigo embrujada de las formas que esconde. ¡Asombroso!
