The story

Try to photograph this. The swallow flying low over the water. The single white lily. The reflections holding every color at once. And that sun blowing through the trees without blowing out the whole frame. Your phone would pick one thing and lose the rest. Mønsted picked everything, in 1896. His only camera was his eyes.
