Label TextFichter experimented with altering photographs with drawing and other manipulations. With Orange, he retained a straight-forward approach. His alteration came with the dark, serrated framing device. It calls attention to the single bright orange. That piece of fruit seems to break out of the picture plane, beckoning for harvesting.
