Part of a series exploring the city, its elements and contrasts, light and shade, exuberance and tranquility. Botanic gardens at dusk, tree limbs against the lowering light, deepening shadows on undergrowth. Birds coming to roost, a swirl of wings and crescendo of noise. There is a panel of canvas collaged in the lower section. This textured work has been finished with a gloss varnish to bring out the colours.
