EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a close-up of a Cotoneaster branch infested with Parthenolecanium corni, commonly known as Brown scale. Against a pristine white background, the intricate details of this parasitic insect and its impact on the flora are beautifully captured. The vibrant green leaves of the shrub provide a stark contrast to the tiny brown scales that cling onto every inch of the branch. Taken in a studio setting, this horizontal image allows us to appreciate the complexity and intricacy of nature's interactions. The cut-out style presentation ensures that our focus remains solely on this fascinating subject without any distractions. The presence of these pests can be detrimental to plants, as they feed on their sap and weaken them over time. However, through this photograph, we gain insight into an often overlooked aspect of nature's delicate balance. Dorling Kindersley has masterfully captured not only the visual appeal but also the scientific significance behind this image. It serves as a reminder that even within seemingly ordinary branches lie hidden worlds teeming with life and interdependence. This thought-provoking print from Universal Images Group (UIG) invites us to explore and appreciate both the beauty and challenges present in our natural environment.
