Book Review: Flower Power
Summary: 5 Stars
Immerse yourself in Fleurish and you will never again casually dismiss the marigolds bobbing like pompoms on your deck or the hydrangea hiding out in the shady corner of your yard. Fleurish combines stunning photography by Ilona with evocative text by Veronica D'Orazio. The mix is sensual and playful - escape at its best. Ilona's achingly beautiful close-up photos of gardenia, calla lily, daffodil, sunflower, poppy, hibiscus, rose, orchid, clematis, delphinium (and more) march you through the color spectrum from white to amethyst with every variation in between. Veronica's prose accompanies with poetic precision, covert and overt sensuality, and a message or two about the parallels between the flora and the human of the species. This is a book for poets, romantics, artists, nature lovers, and, of course, gardeners.
Summary of Fleurish
Garden photographer Ilona brings a fresh, artful approach to capturing flowers on film with an up-close perspective that transforms even the most common blooms into stunning beauties. Vibrant photographs show off 150 different flowers, organized to reveal the complete circle of nature's palette ? white to pink to red to orange to yellow ? all the way around to deeply vivid hues of blue. An appendix with thumbnail images offers horticultural notes for gardeners.
