EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print, the Bladder campion with its enchanting seed heads takes center stage, showcasing nature's intricate beauty. But wait! There's more to behold - an Eschers blue butterfly gracefully perches on the delicate plant, adding a touch of whimsy to this still life composition. Captured in the Stenje region of Galicica National Park in Macedonia back in June 2009, photographer David Maitland has expertly preserved these dead insects and plants by placing them directly on a scanner. The result? An arty shot that transports us into a world where time stands still. The vibrant blue hues of the Eschers blue butterfly contrast beautifully against the soft green tones of the Bladder campion. It's as if they were destined to meet for this extraordinary photo op! These European natives remind us that even in death, there is artistry and harmony. Let your imagination take flight as you explore every detail within this frame – from the intricate patterns on the butterfly's wings to each tiny seed head waiting patiently for new life. This snapshot captures not only two remarkable species but also showcases Mother Nature’s ability to create breathtaking scenes right before our eyes. So let this mesmerizing image transport you into a world where insects dance with flowers and art emerges from unexpected places.
