I’ll never forget coming across this little creature.
I was hiking in the mountains. The sun had just set. Leaving in its wake the glow that amplifies color.
The magic hour.
Walking down a street in NYC one evening, I stumbled upon a cloud of flies. A lustrous swarm. All fever and sunlight. I’d been trying to capture the behavior of these creatures on film all summer long, without success. But at last came this moment.
