![First panel:
Text: It’s hard to imagine anything changing when you’re in the middle of it.
A view of bare trees leading off into the distance. There is snow on the ground.
Second panel:
Text: You never know how to feel about something happening until it does, anyway
A view of a different bare tree. Behind a wall, a row of Edinburgh tenements is visible.
Third panel:
Text: Change can be so gradual that it ends up feeling quite unceremonious
In this view of the park, a hazy silhouette of Arhur’s Seat is visible in the background. The trees in the foreground have some subtle pink buds.
Fourth panel:
Text: But then you look around and everything is different
The viewer looks at a path, lined by trees on both sides which are in full blossom. The path vanishes into the center of the panel. Sunlight is filtering through the trees, onto the path.](https://images.prismic.io/wellcomecollection/112a02d3-d70a-457e-b103-f1f433960fc9_wellcome_change_full.jpg?w=1338&auto=compress%2Cformat&rect=&q=100)
