Subject matter
In this portfolio of seven selected images, Erica Lennard has included fine art photographs of gardens in Japan, England, Tunisia, France, and Italy. The black and white images are enlarged and printed with high contrast, creating moody and grainy atmospheres. Exaggerated black and white forms repeat in the images, flattening the perspectival plane.

Physical Description
A high contrast black and white photograph of three prominent trees on the horizon line, framed at the bottom of the image. The center tree is large with two smaller trees on either side. In the background, more trees are visible in the foggy atmosphere.
