After Dark Shots
After Dark is a series of images I started to escape the minutia our world can be come and to embrace the greater world that we live in. The night sky always provides for me a sense of freedom, magic and perspective. Feeling small in the landscape, reminded of how beautiful the environment can be - how quiet and peaceful - allows me the freedom to explore the darkness and create a purpose for the existing light that I find or bring with me.
This project gives me refuge from the mundane days filled with work, kids, bills, logistics and plans. During Covid, I would grab my young son with me and throw him the car for a night adventure. Below is a photograph of him on location with me long after is bedtime.
