AR 15 - Life's Cycle

Things live and things die. We rarely appreciate the cycle.

The living feed off the dead.

I inadvertently created two sets of images, each set featuring something alive and dead. The dragonfly was alive and kicking when I first walked past. It was flying madly in circles, tethered to a strong strand of silk. The spider above waited motionless for its dinner to exhaust its energy and succumb. On my return, the dragonfly had indeed tired and was hanging and waiting for the inevitable.


These details make me appreciate life so much more. And I feel that much closer to nature observing them.
