A ball of roots, from a tree is centered on a dark background, with a red band above in the background. The roots are clearly lit, with the tree stem cut off. From the artist: The original image was made by placing the plant on an open flatbed scanner with a Tungsten light reflected off the ceiling. The light was turned off 1/4 way down the plant. This created the black background. The digital image was embedded in Photoshop and printed.
