Nightfall

I’m fascinated by the purple peels of the garlic I sometimes cook with. The colors are captivating by themselves, but their pigments and textures conjure impressive visual effects if the light is filtered before it touches the sample. Air bubbles scatter incoming light and glow like microscopic moons over a rugged landscape.
