“To see a World in a Grain of Sand And a Heaven in a Wild Flower…”.

Wise words from William Blake, and truly at the heart of Andy Murray’s macro photography journey.

My name is Andy Murray and for the last fourteen years I have been studying, photographing and writing about springtails and the other soil animals that make up the soil mesofauna. I document their lives on a website, chaosofdelight.org and try to pass on the unshakable and profound love and respect I have for these beautiful, tiny lives and the hidden world they sustain.
