During the last 3 months, I have been working at home on my own, observing my surroundings

I am a fashion photographer, but my work completely halted for the last 3 months, due to the lockdown. I started to photograph my surroundings; learnt to look at my environment in a new way and noticed things I would have gone past before. Created personal work without models and loved working on my own.

I smashed a watermelon to use in another project, but this image ended up being my favourite. The fruit ended up being part of the natural world
