Extreme close-up on one small detail of a tattered wizard's cloak hanging from a nail in a drafty stone corridor, everything else falling away out of focus. The hem of the cloak whips violently in a strong wind that carries visible snowflakes, while the interior lining shows the heat of a recently extinguished candle. Snowflakes have melted into small puddles on the stone floor in the background. A frayed tassel dangles from the hood's edge in the foreground. A faint scorch mark is visible on the inner lining of the fabric near the hem. The camera uses a macro lens a few centimetres from the surface, creating a razor-thin plane of focus that isolates the texture of the fabric. A blurred object close to the lens in the foreground, a piece of rough stone, frames the main figure which is sharp in the middle distance. The light is a flash of lightning, everything frozen in a cold white instant, illuminating the snowflakes and the wet fabric with a stark, blue-white intensity. Shot on a full-frame digital camera with a 100mm macro lens, capturing fine fabric fibers and water droplets with high clarity and a cold color cast.
