Borne on the Wind: Extraordinary World of Insects in Flight

Borne on the Wind: Extraordinary World of Insects in Flight

Stephen Dalton

A revolutionary account of the world of flying insects. The book is the result of years of work on developing specialized photographic equipment that allows insects in flight to be photographed with incredible clarity.

Dalton developed a system of high-speed flashes and optoelectronic triggers that allowed insects in flight to be photographed with incredible clarity. The book contains 159 pages of lavishly illustrated photographs and diagrams that depict various aspects of insect flight, including aerodynamics and flight behavior. In addition to the visual content, Dalton also provides detailed explanations of his methods and techniques, making the book a valuable resource for nature and photography enthusiasts. Borne on the Wind is not just a photographic album, but also a scientific work that explores the complexity and beauty of the world of insects in flight. Dalton's work set new standards in nature photography and remains an inspiration for future generations of photographers and scientists.
