Photographer Christopher Beane manages to take one of the most common themes in art, the flower, and present it in a whole new way.
A collection of Beane's work fills his new book, Flower, a coffee-table volume that celebrates his unconventional approach to floral photography.
Beane's photos capture flowers not only at their peak of beauty, but at various stages of their lives. He sees visual interest in the ruffled form of a perfect fuchsia blossom as well as in the withered petals of a fading tulip, the twisted shape of frost-damaged kale and an open milkweed pod with its seeds floating away on their feathery fibers.
Flower is due out this month from Artisan and sells for $35 in hardcover.
