Moth Wing Scales Over Algerian Glacial Stream

by Adrian Clements

Powdery orange and grey scales cover the translucent membrane of a moth wing, viewed from behind against a twilight backdrop. Tiny, jagged tears puncture the delicate surface near the wing's edge. Below, a glacial stream flows rapidly, its white water churning over dark rocks. Distant town lights glow softly on the horizon, against the deep blue of the winter sky. Dramatic, heavy clouds loom overhead, their undersides illuminated by the fading light. The scene shows the fragile stillness of the insect against the rushing cold water, with a single tear in the wing catching the faint glow of the distant settlement.
