EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Neil Fletcher from Universal Images Group, we witness the mesmerizing moment of a Southern hawker dragonfly (Aeshna cyanea) emerging from its nymph skin. Against a pristine white background, the intricate details of this natural phenomenon are beautifully showcased. The image captures the essence of biology and metamorphosis as we observe the delicate creature breaking free from its cocoon-like casing. The vertical composition allows us to appreciate every stage of this enchanting transformation, from larva to fully-formed dragonfly. With a side view perspective, we can marvel at the exquisite intricacies of its animal skin and wings. This studio shot offers an up-close encounter with nature's wonders, emphasizing new life and emergence. The absence of people in the frame directs our attention solely towards this remarkable event unfolding before our eyes. The inclusion of a plant stem adds context to the dragonfly's habitat while highlighting its connection to nature. Neil Fletcher's skillful capture not only showcases his expertise in entomology but also invites us into a world where science meets artistry. Through this image sequence, we are reminded that even within one animal lies an extraordinary journey filled with growth and transformation.
