Moonglass is a chapter dedicated to our only natural satellite and its reflection accompanying our nights. Embodying the cycle and representing the rhythm of time, we've been sharing its bright spectacle with so many that came before us. Everyone can probably recall a time when they witnessed the night being illuminated by its presence. An awe-provoking moment for many of us. Fascinated by this master of tidal force lighting up our scenery, we try to include it with our light-painting as it slightly changes every day, following its own trajectory around us. Capturing the Moon in the frame was initially done to avoid other constraints, but it quickly became a natural light we want to add to our creations whenever we can. When we do, it feels like time slows down. As the conditions remain stable for a while and our visibility increases, we can take our time, be more efficient and fully enjoy the process.

This image is the only exception we included in this chapter. Maybe you recognized the Evening Star, brightest of them all, casting a line of light on the water. Second brightest celestial object in our night sky, Venus, has been part of your journey for a while. Over the years, we had the chance to witness it a few times among the first visible “stars” when we create during the blue hour. It's always a special moment.
