Public Art at PTI Airport - No Info Regarding Artist or About the Artwork

Sometimes I find unusual images to capture at public places.  I was taking my daughter to PTI airport and noticed this usual artwork?   There was no artist or name listed for this object.  I had to shoot upwards with my iPhone. It looked like it was made with silicone.

Sarah Duke Garden July 14, 2019

Image
 Sunday I went to Sarah Duke Garden in Durham, NC.  Went early as it was going to be 90+ degrees in the afternoon.  The image on the right is Aechmea tessmannii which is a member of the bromeliad family.  I used my Plant Snap app to identify the name as no marker.

Fringe Tree (Shrub) and Altered Art

Image
Image on left is a Fringe Tree/Shrub (Chionanthus virgini.cus).   It blooms in the spring.  I love the texture of this plant. I did  adjust highlights & shadows. For the image on the right I used the invert filter in PSE 15 to make this abstract design. Because the original colors were green and white, this changed to purple and black.  Looks like something a painter might have painted but only took a few minutes with a press of the mouse to change.  Will use this for camera club presentation in May: "Inspired by Trees & Shrubs" as well post to Facebook or Instagram.
