I saw these three starlings one morning from my kitchen window, on the lawn in our garden. They were sitting there very relaxed - as if having a sit-down - busily interacting with each other. This resulted in a series of photos, some of which I later used for this digital artwork.

For me, this work is all about the pleasure of observation: pausing for a moment at a seemingly ordinary moment, and then discovering how special it actually is. Just in your own backyard.
