It is both, a blessing, and a curse, to feel everything so very deeply.

Moonrise Amidst an Aurora Called Steve

5 years ago, I met Steve. I stumbled into Steve after being drawn out from the city by a faint green glow in the night sky. As my eyes adjusted, I watched the moon rise from a hazy horizon, which gave it a blood red appearance. Then I noticed a thin strip of light stretching across the sky from east to west.

It gave me a strange feeling, like I was connected to something bigger. Like a path or highway that connected directly to the stars

I tried finding anything that could explain what I had seen. It wasn’t until I heard about Steve earlier this year, that finally everything made sense, and I can now call it by its name.

I originally posted my experience here > Moonrise Amidst. While the photo captures the mood of the moment, which was my intention, it doesn’t show Steve very well. I shot this with my 18-200mm kit lens and had never tried capturing auroras before. Exposures are 30 seconds. The orange glow is light pollution from the city’s lights. I later purchased a Tokina 11-16mm 2.8 for wide-angle night photography, and since then my aurora-shooting skills have dramatically improved. These photos are enhanced versions of the originals.

If you’re curious about the name, here’s the story.

As an artist, I live for moments like these. When everything comes together so perfectly. A multi-hued alley served as the backdrop for this last minute photoshoot. I had seen pictures of it, but had not been there personally. I guess I was waiting for the right moment, for the right shoot.

Working with Maria is always a delight, but once I saw those bright glitter boots, I knew this would be spectacular. These photos don't capture them justly. They’re sparkly, vibrant and exude energy. Boots fit for a unicorn. A perfect fit.

Maria paired ripped jeans with an Arctic Monkeys tee, and topped it off with a jellyfish jacket, which is just exquisite. Have a closer look here.

I’ve heard various opinions about this space, after all it’s just an alley, but somehow, it just works. Add Maria’s effortless street style, with a track from one of my favourite bands, and we have a lively video to celebrate this look as well.

If you are strong enough, you will survive. That is the law of the jungle. This girl is poison.

The wind was insane. It damaged some buildings, ferry service was canceled, and a tree crushed a car in Surrey. Reminded me of the time when the windstorm caused this blackout a little over a year ago.
