Wandering around Atlantis and searching for the light

“Night, the beloved. Night, when words fade and things come alive. When the destructive analysis of day is done, and all that is truly important becomes whole and sound again. When man reassembles his fragmentary self and grows with the calm of a tree.” – Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

As I searched for these words to connect image to message tonight, I am reminded once again, that I truly am a night owl. I know that there are countless piles of data to remind me that to be a better achiever in this global race for optimum performance, I should be working towards an earlier rise time every morning. But that would mean turning in just when my creative thoughts and ideas begin to flow. Also, kinda hard to do that when you light special events for a living! We do work some strange hours indeed.

I shot and created this while toying around with a camera that I rented to test out the video quality for a 30 day VLOG that I did. While the party was going on, I decided to do a little exploring of the grounds and found this cool perspective that shows the party going on in full swing off in the distance. I also created a quick little clip from some of the cuts I gathered from the party. Check it out. Its a little rough, but like I said, I was playing around a bit 🙂

Just in case you are reading this in a viewer other than the blog, here is a link to the video!
