Insects at First Light
A Photographic Journey Through the Early Hours of Dawn
Photographing insects in the early morning can be an exciting and rewarding experience. As the dawn breaks, the insects emerge from their nightly torpor, their movements slow and graceful, as if waking from a dream. The cool night air leaves dew drops like sparkling jewels on their bodies and the surrounding vegetation, creating a breathtaking scene. The soft morning light can add a beautiful and ethereal quality to insect photography, creating a magical and otherworldly atmosphere.
