Smell the flowers, as they say

A new international award for Tim Platt Fine Art Photography, he explores the often-overlooked beauty of the natural world by transforming ordinary flowers into vibrant works of art


Tim Platt’s Flower Portraits series was recently awarded Gold in the 10th Fine Art Photography Awards 2024. This follows his first prize in the International Photography Awards 2023 and a winning entry in the Tokyo International Foto Awards 2023. Tim Platt’s ongoing ‘Flora’ series of fine art prints continues to receive international recognition. Tim explores the often-overlooked beauty of the natural world by transforming ordinary flowers into vibrant works of art that bring color and life into any home or office setting — his attention to detail and dedication to quality result in iconic macro photographs with an almost hyper-realistic effect.



Here’s a look at his collections.


Flora: As Platt’s breathtakingly detailed flower portraits win top honors in prestigious international fine art photography awards, he continues to capture and immortalize the ephemeral beauty of nature in his latest collection, ‘Flora.’ This series, recently awarded first prizes in the International Photography Awards 2023 and Fine Art Photography Awards 2024, explores nature’s intricate botanical details, transforming these observations into hyper-real masterpieces when scaled up as fine art prints on your wall. Each image within his ‘Flora’ collection is merged from many shots at different focal points to enhance depth of focus, detail, and clarity.


Acclaimed fine art photographer Tim Platt’s remarkable Flower Portraits series is gaining international recognition. His images focus on the intricate beauty of nature, offering contemplations of our natural world.

Sweet pea: A colorful garden favorite, the delicate and abstract quality of Tim Platt’s award-winning Sweet Pea image evokes summery gratitude and happiness. As a prime example of Tim’s acclaimed Flower Portraits series, this piece combines his in-depth technical skills with an appreciation for small, often unseen details. This creative approach to flower photography has once again earned him a gold award in the Fine Art Photography Awards 2024. Add this award-winning image to a series or feature it as a standalone statement. It will enhance any space with grace and charm.


Parrot tulip bud: Platt’s photograph “Parrot tulip bud” is another winning entry in the International Photography Awards 2023. It beautifully captures the moment right before the tulip’s feathery petals burst open, its subtle colors set to saturate into vivid purples, reds, greens, and yellows. The bud embodies nature’s intensifying energy within it. This Rainbow Parrot tulip, a symbol of unconditional love, has an almost three-dimensional sculptural quality. Printed on smooth Photo Rag, a 308 gsm heavyweight art paper, this dramatic image will become a conversation piece in any room.


Whirlygig Cape daisy: This tiny flower is just 25mm wide. Tim Platt’s fascination with photographing flowers is observing the remarkable detail within nature’s design. The closer you get, the more you see. This image is focus-stacked using 130 shots at slightly different focal points to create sufficient depth of field from front to back. This technique is time-consuming, but it is the only way to achieve such deep focus when working with a macro lens. This flower signifies silence and purity. Available for purchase as an archival limited edition print on fine art paper.
