Photo Respiration Trees Shirakami #10

A dense forest of slender trees rendered in black and white, their bare and leafy branches interlacing against a pale sky. Scattered across the underbrush and low branches are dozens of small bright points of light, arcing and clustering through the mid and foreground in irregular trails. The scene is still and shadowed, with no human figures present. Photo Respiration: Trees, Shirakami #10, by Tokihiro Sato, 2008, archival pigment print.
