Floral Design by Yukiko

Branches catch summer light in the studio

Old world craftsman’s hand and eye.

Light reflecting on the yellow viburnum recalls classical botanical illustrations of the 18th Century, hand-colored engravings and mezzotints.  Yukiko created this ikebana in the last week of May, and Peter photographed it with a Fuji Finepix S2 Pro and edited the digital raw file in Photoshop CS. Its web optimized jpg image is posted here on the blog Floral Design by Yukiko.
