Unsure where to go next with my project I went to get some research photographs at Dundee University’s Museum Services. This is a really incredible small building that houses many different collections that belong to the University. These can range from scientific instruments, zoology collections, textiles and even mathematic models. The service is run by Matthew Jarron who was extremely patient with letting me take photographs. What I was interested in specifically was the herbarium where they store thousands of plant samples.
Of course when I got there I realised I hadn’t a clue what flowers or plants I actually wanted to look at. I ended up asking Matthew to find me some from the area where I lived and from the Panmure area where I did my second year project. They ended up being incredibly lovely and I was extremely happy with the photographs. I played about with them for a bit and decided they looked best inverted with a black background. Working on manipulating them further. These are only a small sample of what I edited!
