Photographing nature beyond the limits of human perception

Artist Doris Mitsch invites us to revel in the wonders of nature through her dazzling photography: stacked images of starlings in flight, hawks surfing thermal updrafts, bats echolocating through the night sky and more. Revealing the hidden trails created by creatures in flight, her work offers unique insight into the intelligence behind nature's invisible rhythms.

Layering thousands of photographs uncovers intricate flight paths and unseen patterns in the natural world. Crows commute daily, vultures soar for hours without flapping, and bats shout at the volume of a jet engine. These revelations show how animals navigate with senses and signals beyond human reach. The familiar becomes extraordinary, reminding us that what we call empty air is actually alive with information.
