This girl who is obsessed with plant photography is Anna, a famous British botanist and illustrator. Atkins. Nowadays, people always praise her as "the first woman in the world to publish a photo album", and some people even regard her as "the first female photographer in the world".

Influenced by her father, in an era when photography meant pungent potions, she successfully published the British seaweed Atlas with her love of plants, her obsession with blue tanning and her original insights. It is also the first photo album to study the biology of algae.

The blue process, also known as "cyanide photography", was a common friend of Atkins and his father. Sir John Herschel discovered that many iron compounds were sensitive to light in 1841-1842, which led to the invention of blue photography. This ancient photography technique is still active in the field of cartography, which is commonly known as blueprints by designers.

"it is difficult to accurately draw so many details of algae and unknown plants, which prompted me to use Sir John Herschel's beautiful blue tanning process to get images of the plants themselves, and I would be happy to recommend them to my botany friends," she said. "

I don't know how much enthusiasm she used to stop the pungent smell.

I don't know what kind of weather she is in, picking the muse in her heart.

I don't even know how she feels about tidying up every plant specimen.

But what I can really feel from her plant atlas is

This quiet and mysterious blue, like the sea wrapped in her lens. The sea breeze hit, the sea slightly moved, and the clearly visible stems and leaves seemed to be dancing, very smart.

What is even more surprising is that plants do not need to be decorated.

It's an exquisite painting.

Natural gestation, natural growth, natural beauty

I think that's probably the charm of plants.
