Nudes Of Nature
Chiiz
|Volume 17
The symbolism of water has a universal undertone of purity and fertility.
-
Figuratively, it is often viewed as the source of life. Water lends fertility to almost everything it touches. Similarly, nature and human life are interlinked and work together. These unplanned photographs of orchids and anthuriums express a certain artistic nudity in their illustration. They represent the genitalia in a symbolic sense. So, some shots in Macro on the Pentax 645Z (Medium Format) and lens, Pentax 645 AF 120 mm F/4 FA macro explored the possibilities of visually representing the similarity of nudity.

A lot of its flavours and masala mixes have been handed down from over a thousand years and Bengalis to this day retain those recipes which make them truly “shonar Bangla” dishes.
