Night Reflection 7.4

Collection

Night Reflection Seven by Kim Henry & Eric Pare

Description

Moonglass is a chapter dedicated to our only natural satellite and its reflection accompanying our nights. Embodying the cycle and representing the rhythm of time, we've been sharing its bright spectacle with so many that came before us. Everyone can probably recall a time when they witnessed the night being illuminated by its presence. An awe-provoking moment for many of us. Fascinated by this master of tidal force lighting up our scenery, we try to include it with our light-painting as it slightly changes every day, following its own trajectory around us. Capturing the Moon in the frame was initially done to avoid other constraints, but it quickly became a natural light we want to add to our creations whenever we can. When we do, it feels like time slows down. As the conditions remain stable for a while and our visibility increases, we can take our time, be more efficient and fully enjoy the process. Moonset magic. One would need a good reason to get up in the middle of the night, drive about an hour in darkness, and be exposed to the coldest moments of the day for a few hours. To create an image that gives us access to the most unique spectacle of the month: the Moon setting on the salt flats a few hours before dawn. We were probably the only human beings appreciating this nature's display. Due to its color and brilliance, the moonset was almost looking like a sunset. It was indeed a good reason to set the alarm at 1:30 am.
