The Hedgehog Ramp
On its nightly garden rounds a hedgehog stalls at the same steep curb, nose to the stone. The jogger who always passes at eleven kneels tonight with a small wooden ramp — sanded, painted, exactly hedgehog-wide.
Why this works on camera
Ground-level night photography and one absurdly specific act of carpentry — kindness at hedgehog scale.
