A macro photograph of a wooden pencil pointing vertically upwards, its graphite tip masterfully carved into a microscopic, multi-spired Gothic cathedral. The raw, faceted wood of the sharpened pencil transitions into a delicate, metallic-grey graphite sculpture featuring tall slender steeples and arched windows. The lower unsharpened base features chipped black and yellow paint. Centered against a pristine, heavily textured white paper background with ample negative space, the composition uses soft directional lighting to highlight the impossibly fine details of the miniature architecture and organic wood grain.
