EDITORS COMMENTS
This close-up photograph showcases the exquisite beauty of Kombu, also known as kelp, in its rolled up seaweed sheets form. The image captures a plate with these vibrant green seaweed rolls placed against a clean white background, creating a visually striking contrast. Shot in a studio setting, the high angle view allows us to appreciate the intricate details and textures of this traditional Japanese ingredient. The differential focus technique used by photographer Ian O'Leary draws our attention to specific parts of the image while blurring out others, adding depth and dimension to the composition.
