It’s a visual that makes you do a double take. The moment a flock of starlings form the exact shape of a teaspoon full of sugar is one that Israeli photographer Albert Keshet has frozen in time via his camera lens.
The extraordinary shot was taken early one morning in the northern Jordan Valley. Well used to photographing birds in flight, Albert lingered watching groups of starlings for several hours. As compositions of birds danced and swooped in unison, he was stunned to see the medley form a spoon before his eyes.
