Jeffrey Westbrook, Photographer, New York

Description

This macro photograph by Jeffrey Westbrook captures an elaborate diamond-encrusted bracelet shaped like a caterpillar resting across dark, concentric rings of bracket fungi. Two distinct beetles are positioned nearby on the glistening, woody surfaces. The lighting highlights the sparkling facets of the pavé-set diamonds alongside the polished, amber and deep red wing cases of the insects. The rich textures and deep organic tones create a striking contrast against the glittering precious stones.
