Night
in the Middle ot Nowhere
Into
the Night in the Middle of Nowhere the stars appear: thousands
of them- a sight so enchanting that I rush with my camera
to the meadows and hilltops, to gather their reflective light.
These are long exposures, nearly an hour, and strange things
happen: mists come and cover the lens, stars streak and moons
rise and fall. No ambient light intrudes save the ebb and
burn of nearby windows. In this still whispering night, with
flashlight in hand I am transformed: a lightstruck ghost in
a summery field. When winter comes, this place will haunt
me. |
