After photographing the flowers frozen within the ice with the intention of comparing it to the image of me in a similar setting, I decided to photograph the flowers once the ice had melted.
I found it interesting that the flowers when out of ice and instead in water look weaker than they did before, practically dead. It links back to my idea of the ice preserving the flowers and once they are exposed they die.
I believe it also makes an interesting composition when pairing the two photographs together – one in ice and the other in the water. The colour tones within the image make it seem positive then negative – representing the idea of life and death.
