Day Two Hundred Seventy, October 19, 2011

time, the elastic mystery

As a photographer, you hone your perceptions on the relationships between light, speed, and movement. And it is so thrilling when we can create an image that is a record of something that normally cannot be seen. We can slow down time, freeze it and record movement in a way that paints a fantasy, like the 2 giant cargo ships in this photo that passed by as a ghosts leaving only light trails.

ONLY READ THE SECOND PARAGRAPH IF YOU BELIEVE IN FAIRIES 🙂

Thinking of all these relationships makes me think funny enough of fairies. It has been said that fairies appear to us as sparks of light because they move at a much higher speed than we do. So, maybe this is a good place to start thinking about this, photography and fairies, yes, why not?

photo taken: the view of the Huang Pu river from my balcony that I never get tired of looking at.
