The Coronavirus lockdown limitations, somewhat ironically, granted me with rare free time to re-ignite an old dream to engage in the macro photography of insects.
I started this project by conducting searches for insects in the woodlands near my home, and then struggling with the constraints of changing light, winds, and various improvisations in order to photograph them; but I only realized my dream fully after deciding to bring the insects into my home studio and to create a set for each one individually. Each insect possesses its own unique characteristics; these were emphasized through lighting, patience, and composition
I invite you to get in close.
