Stubbles
While the summer glow of elegant and dramatic floral displays is captivating, it’s also intriguing to look closely at the structural architecture that hosted the floral beauty. The amazing architecture that nature builds in plant life during the growing season takes shape briefly, then fades into the later months in autumn and winter, leaving the remaining intricate structures called Stubbles. True to form, OpusStuf adds a bit of character to these relics with meticulous photographs and theatrical themes. Stubbles is a family, with a wink and a tongue-in-cheek. It’s personification on the light side.
Bella Right
As a desert native, Bella was anxious for the glamour of a studio portrait. After doing the required duty of spreading seeds for the next generation, it was time to relax and just enjoy the surroundings. Patience and holding a pose was required for this portrait. Not so easy for such an active relic. Some of Bella’s friends also attended the studio session and enjoyed the momentary glamour as much as she did.
Marvin Left
After retirement from an active life, Marvin was ready to relax and hang out with his family. He had spawn a large family in his desert home, and had a variety of friends and relatives, including his cousin Bella. He was known among his family as a wiseacre and show off, but with a friendly and loving heart. He just could not pass up an opportunity for a wisecrack, and dearly loved a good joke and yucking it up (pun intended).
Moonglow
Bella and Marvin frolic in the moonlight to celebrate the singular moth who pollinates them during nighttime hours. The female moth actively collects pollen and deposits it into the flower’s stigma while laying her eggs inside the ovary, exchanging pollination for a place to lay her eggs. So Bella and Marvin get together and yuck it up to celebrate what made their family possible.
Quadra
Quadruplets came along in the Stubbles family. Since they were hard to tell one from another, and the fact that they always traveled together, it would be simplest to just name the group Quadra. In a fairly strong breeze, they make a harmonious vocal group, blending in full, half and even quarter notes. When they were young, travel was fairly easy, so they went on tour. We don’t have video of them traveling together, but we can imagine them bouncing along on a flexible stem like a pogo stick.
Homecoming
Bella and Marvin meet up in their native homeland for a family gathering. The family tries to do this every couple of years. They don't have the legs for long walks, so they travel in a vehicle or carried by large bi-peds.
Benny 3
Benny tried to lean into the camera for dramatic effect in this portrait, but it’s hard to view this image without chuckling a bit. Instead of drama, it somehow projects the character of a nosy teenager with a complexion issue. At first look, the curved spines protruding out of the body look a bit threatening, but in reality they are soft and flexible.
