Entomologist Pinning Beetles at Blue Hour in in Red October, Moscow

Entomologist Pinning Beetles at Blue Hour

by Joann Middleton

Late autumn chill hangs in the air as a silhouette of an entomologist works under the warm glow of a task lamp. The figure stands against the deepening blue of the Moscow evening, their form dark and sharp against the bright light source. Beetle specimens rest on a white surface, their metallic wings catching faint reflections. Salt wind ripples the loose papers and pushes a thin wire across the workspace. The lamp casts long, dramatic shadows that stretch across the table, highlighting the texture of the wooden surface. Outside the window, the city lights begin to blur into streaks of gold and red. One pin glints in the lamp's beam, marking the edge of the specimen tray.
