EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Neil Fletcher showcases the intriguing world of insects. The image features two distinct species, the European Elm Leafcurl Aphid (Eriosoma ulmi) and the smaller Green Apple Aphid (Aphis pomi), both captured in their full length development. Against a clean white background, these tiny creatures stand out with their unique camouflage patterns. The photograph beautifully captures the growth and scale of these bizarre insects, highlighting their variation in size and appearance. One aphid is seen crouching while the other stands tall, emphasizing their contrasting forms. Despite their small size, they possess an undeniable ugliness that adds to their allure. The vibrant green color of these pests symbolizes both problems and fragility within nature's delicate balance. However, it also represents new life and beginnings as they navigate through various stages of development. Shot from a high angle view, this studio composition allows us to appreciate the intricate natural patterns found on these creatures' bodies. Animal themes are brought to life through this detailed portrayal of insect life. In this thought-provoking image captured by Neil Fletcher for Universal Images Group (UIG), we are reminded of how even seemingly insignificant creatures like aphids play a crucial role in our ecosystem despite their often overlooked presence.
