Len Metcalf and Kristyn Haywood have embarked on a magical collaboration of photographs and poetry. Len’s exquisite sepia images of flowers are paired with Kristyn’s touching poetry. The soul searching and sometimes turbulent exploration that is evoked by each image takes us on an emotional journey that is intended to inspire and encourage connection with nature.
They speak not only of their floral subjects, but also of themselves, each with their unique voice. Their combined creative talents have produced this hauntingly beautiful tribute to nature, flowers and the human spirit.
Each poem is written for its floral counterpart and together a compelling work unfolds with each turn of the page.
