entry description
This series is an unusual way of seeing nature at night illuminated by the stars and artificial light. Used in a clever way, artificial light makes the seascape feel like a stage, as if nature could be part of a theatrical place where a million years play is performed by nature. The images were taken at the Chilean Pacific Coast where there are still places free of light pollution, which is definitely something to preserve and take care of. Some of the scenes were taken in a four-minute exposure and some were taken in shorter exposures with higher ISO settings in order to preserve the stars as dots instead of trails. In both cases the light was casted using a drone with a headlight attached to it, and carefully flew above the subject giving the impression of a stage light.about the photographer
Chilean Photographer based in Santiago. Continuously seeking for natural beauty in simplicity. I consider every photo as an undeserved gift: to be able to capture the beauty of a single moment and share it so hopefully the life of many is improved.back to gallery
