The Universe at Our Feet

Plants that release their pollen like ninja smoke-bombs. Water droplets emerging from leaves to glisten like jewels. There is a little-known universe of wonders at our very feet. Plant photographer Hany Ciabou has dedicated 40 years to showing us the special qualities of the most ordinary plants, and the drama in their supposedly immobile lives. His poetic photos and evocative poetry celebrate minute glories and eternal moments.
