Silver halides awaken‚ stirring from a deep slumber. Moving as one‚ each crystalline structured compound recreates a single moment in time that will never re-occur. This moment embodies captivating beauty for it is unique and raw‚ its existence birthed directly from light itself. Before me‚ a white void morphs into a breathtaking juncture
