Chirality is the property of an object that cannot be placed exactly on top of its mirror image, like a left and a right hand. This series looks at flight in two forms, birds and aeroplanes, and the asymmetry and mirrored shapes found in each.
A small plane crosses an empty blue sky. An egret lifts off dark water. An ibis wades through its own reflection. Each frame is about a single shape against a lot of space.
