Imogen Cunningham
"Cunningham was born in Portland, Oregon, in 1883. n Seattle, Cunningham opened her studio and won acclaim for portraiture and pictorial work. Most of her studio work of this time consisted of sitters in their own homes, in her living room, or in the woods surrounding Cunningham's cottage.Cunningham refined her style, taking a greater interest in pattern and detail and becoming increasingly interested in botanical photography, especially Between 1923 and 1925 she carried out an in-depth study of the magnolia flower. Cunningham once again changed direction, becoming more interested in the human form, particularly hands, and she was fascinated with the hands of artists and musicians." -  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imogen_Cunningham

We got assigned the project Get Close and we are meant to take up-close pictures of objects preferably
 flowers. Imogen Cunningham inspired many people with her photography. Im excited to see how these pictures come out.
