Extreme macro straight into the cut edge of a thick stack of thousands of sheets of coloured paper, each sheet a hairline stratum, the whole reading as dense horizontal bands of colour with a slight wave where the stack compressed. An extreme macro photograph in which the material itself is the entire subject — no object, no scene, no story. Raking side light so that texture reads as relief. Fills the whole square frame, edge to edge, with the surface only. No human faces in frame. If hands appear they are ordinary working hands with five normal fingers, correctly proportioned, and fully clothed forearms. No text, no letters, no numbers, no signage, no logo and no watermark anywhere in the image. Do NOT include any real company logo, real brand name or real trademark.
