Silhouette photography is shaped by light rather than detail. As color fades, form takes over, reducing birds to shape and gesture instead of behavior. In these final moments of daylight, seconds matter—movement slows, contrast deepens, and familiar subjects become graphic marks within the frame. Driven by atmosphere and timing rather than action, this work stands apart as a distinct body of images defined by restraint.
