This metallic glass print shows a Silvereye tucked into a pocket of shade inside glossy green leaves. The bird sits left of centre, cool and calm, while the right side opens into warm, sunlit bokeh. The balance feels natural, the detail stays crisp, and the scene reads like a quiet pause in the middle of the day.
Silvereyes are small Australian songbirds with the neat white eye-ring that gives them their name. They feed on insects, nectar and soft fruit, often helping spread seeds as they move through gardens and forest edges. They travel in family flocks with soft contact calls, quick and agile among foliage. I spotted this bird sheltering from the hot midday sun beneath the leaves, a brief refuge before it rejoined the group.
What I love most about this metallic glass print is the way the cool shade on the left balances with the warmth on the right. The soft, bright blur pulls attention straight back to the bird tucked under cover. Feathers, leaf veins and branch texture hold sharp, while the background melts away so the Silvereye becomes the focal point.
