Clayton Cotterell, Photographer, Portland

Description

This overhead still life photograph by Clayton Cotterell features a cluster of dark, glossy cherries with thin stems scattered across a pale, textured surface. A vibrant purple juice stain spreads organically across the background beneath and around the fruit, creating a dynamic visual contrast. The composition has an editorial, documentary-style feel with natural lighting highlighting the rich colours and glossy textures of the fruit and the fluid splatter. The minimalist framing draws complete focus to the organic forms and the rich purple and deep red colour palette.
