Matthias Koch"Metamorphosis" is more than just a photographic series; it is a poignant exploration of the passage from childhood to adolescence, a metamorphosis that evokes the delicate transition from larva to butterfly. Through this intimate work, Matthias Koch documents this process of change over a period of nine years—sometimes difficult, but always marked by hope and the conviction that everything will turn out well.<br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/matthiaskoch?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#matthiaskoch</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/photography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#photography</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/adolesence?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#adolesence</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/red?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#red</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/metamorphosis?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#metamorphosis</a>

Steven Lawson Photography<p>I was trying to think of a different way of presenting some of the abstract photographs I took for my Metamorphosis project (A4 zine coming soon, BTW) and decided to try combining a photograph with an abstract painted background.<br>This is a very rough first attempt - there's lots of fine tuning to be done and the background is a little too busy, but I think the idea has merit.<br>I would be interested to hear opinions.<br><a href="https://photog.social/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>photography</span></a> <a href="https://photog.social/tags/AbstractPhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AbstractPhotography</span></a> <a href="https://photog.social/tags/AbstractArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AbstractArt</span></a> <a href="https://photog.social/tags/Metamorphosis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Metamorphosis</span></a></p>
