This is so beautiful it will break your heart. It made me weep. For all the horrors created by tiny-minded humans, all the gods and goddesses and the Queen of Goddesses, our very own Mother Earth are still calling for "The show must go on" and doing their utmost to create joy and hope for us all...just waiting for the day that we can say we've finally come back to where it is we have sought and called home.
Full moon over Wellington, NZ...
It is a 3 minute video clip of the full moon rising over Wellington. It was shot 2 nights ago, on a calm summer evening, as people gathered on the Mt. Victoria Lookout point to watch the moon rise.
This stunning video is one single real-time shot, with no manipulation whatsoever. The camera was placed on a hillside over 2 kilometres from the Lookout point, and was shot with the equivalent of a 1300mm lens.
The amount of planning, trial and error, and luck that went into this are mind blowing. He has been trying to capture this for over a year with many failed attempts. But 2 nights ago it seems everything was on his side, and it all came together in a way even he couldn't have hoped.
I honestly can't say enough good things about this video - from the magnitude of the visuals, to the intimate stories playing out with the people, to the sheer humbling nature of seeing the awe-inspiring reality of this giant rock in the sky that we so often don't stop to appreciate.
One thing I encourage you to do is watch this on the biggest screen you have - don't waste it on an iphone screen.
