I’m Australian. I’m used to space and real light. I can definitely understand your need to capture and savour that tiny glimpse of nature in your life, but to me it feels so dark and claustrophobic.
Next time I have my laptop on, I’ll have a look on a larger screen and hopefully I’ll have a better feel for what you’re trying to share. On the iPad, I feel like I’m in a cage trying to get a glimpse of blue sky and sunshine.
The different lives we lead. My ‘grounded’ viewpoint with space to breathe. Hopefully you have a love for where you live too, so high up in the sky surrounded by steel and glass and people...
Thanks for sharing dear Stella. Apologies for not finding the joy in it. That’s unusual for me. Perhaps I should have waited until tomorrow before responding, but I know you appreciate the conversations, so hopefully this won’t be too much of a downer. Sending heaps of hugs and best wishes.
Perseverance certainly paid off. Cool and dramatic photos. Your situation sorta reminds me of an old wildlife photographer friend who would wait and wait in a photo blind for that wildlife moment and eventually it would pay off. Glad you got some of what you sought.
This was fantastic! I watched it once through, then kept scrolling through slider back and forth, watching the light flash by quickly, stopping on favorite moments, back and forth, back and forth. It’s truly mesmerizing, so glad you took the time to capture it!
Oh Stella! You show me the beauty of constraints!!! It’s amazing that you were able to gather this much light and shadow with an iPod camera. I’m inspired by your gentle persistence. One thing I’ve learned from my walks in the forest is that light is something immediate and fleeting--it calls to be appreciated from moment to moment. Let there be Light--the First Gift of all creation. It is a holy impulse to savor this phenomenon.
I am so glad you took your chance and followed your passion to photograph this scene! I am glad you shared it with us. The light is absolutely amazing!
So glad you didn’t missed the chance to capture this light ! It’s dramatic, there’s some “sci-fi “movie vibes there 😅
