The photograph

A speck against the sun

This is the smallest aircraft in the collection and one of the largest skies. Photographed with a long lens at the end of a summer day, a distant airliner appears as a tiny silhouette just beneath the disc of the setting sun, which hangs pale and enormous in a sky of amber haze.

Thin bands of cloud cross the upper part of the sun, and the colour deepens from honey gold at the top of the frame to near-black at the bottom. The atmosphere softens everything, giving the image the quality of a painting rather than a technical record.

A meditative, minimal print for calm rooms. Offered in A4 and A3+, sizes that suit its soft, atmospheric character; the photographer's signature appears at the bottom of the image.

Photographed on 16 August 2025 with a Sony α7R IIIA at a focal length of 347 mm.
