Alex Clark, 4/14/13, Artist Post

Artist chosen: Mike Moats
Images from: http://tinylanscapes.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/dsf00031.jpg and http://tinylanscapes.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/96396913-emjuh3vk-_dsf2401.jpg?w=614&h=460




After searching Google and Bing for macro photographers, I discovered the photographer named Mike Moats.  His images, especially the two posted, inspire me to continue my journey down the path of a macro photographer.  The first image is of some sort of a shell.  The shell appears to have a creamy white color, and more than likely is located in an area where the light is very bright.  Furthermore, the light appears to be coming from above and from the left.  This image can possibly symbolize the constant spiral of life, regardless of whether it appears to be a downward spiral or an upward spiral.




The second image taken by Mike Moats appears to be of two of the same type of flower.  Both are white and possess a bit of purple in their stamen and petals.  They also have green stalks.  This photograph can symbolize innocence and purity, since the flowers are the color white.  However, since the image is a bit out of focus, the purity and innocence may be fading away and may soon become a faded memory of the past.
