A visual meditation on the brevity of life and the transition into winter. Heavily backlit by the fading autumnal sun, a localised swarm is illuminated against the encroaching shadows of the treeline. Rather than a purely clinical observation, the composition embraces the inherent melancholy of the season, using the suspended, glowing flight patterns to reflect on the fleeting nature of biological cycles and the quiet, inevitable beauty found at the end of a life span. Presented on Hahnemühle FineArt Baryta mounted to aluminium Dibond with a 6 mm natural oak floater frame.
