Have you ever stopped and actually watched the moon rise.
The beauty of it!
Revealing silhouettes - took a year of follwoing the moon around and finally on a calm clear night in January 2013 - uploaded to youtube - led to interviews...
All sorts of critique - amazing emails from ordinary people write and thanked Mark for Full Moon silhouettes!
Stories of hope and strength to hold on...
How do you respond!
The response has been overwhelming - why did so many people feel connected and bound to share their stories.
Why imagery of the night sky?
Remote locations, variables, being out there, standing under millions of stars outweighs any challenge.
Capturing real images in the moment!
Understanding the story of what is beyond earth...
Hundreds of millions of galaxies.
Encouraging exposure to experiences...
Stop, look up, and enjoy the MAGIC that is in our night sky....
