Dried Orchid on Herbarium Sheet Cliff Edge
by Bjorn Zavala
A pressed orchid specimen lies flat against the cream-colored paper of a herbarium sheet, its dried petals curled inward in shades of faded violet and brown. The sheet rests directly on a rough, salt-crusted cliff edge where the stone glows with a thin, sharp rim of dawn light. Deep shadows swallow the lower portion of the frame, hiding the ground below while a brief sun shower creates a wet sheen on the paper's surface. Late summer grasses fringe the rock, their tips heavy with moisture and drooping under the weight of rain. The dried plant stem contrasts with the damp, dark stone, its brittle texture highlighted by the pale morning glow. One water droplet rests on the corner of the paper, reflecting the gray sky.
