15 April 2013

A quick one for you today, Daily Quoters.
A combination of exams and the nursing of injuries means an expedient post!

Today's Daily Quota is a time-lapse video titled Alchemy by Henry Jun Wah Lee under the alias of Evosia. It's a beautiful, high definition labour of love, capturing the ever-changing nature of, well, nature.

He describes it best in the accompanying blurb;

Alchemy is a short film about transformation. In nature, everything is constantly changing: the earth, the sky, the stars, and all living things. Spring is followed by summer, fall and winter. Water turns into clouds, rain and ice. Over time, rivers are created, canyons carved, and mountains formed. All of these elements, mixed together, create the magic of nature's alchemy.



What I love most about this video is the juxtaposition between the rapidly changing day and night skies, and the seemingly timeless landscape itself. For me, it seems to evoke this conundrum: If a tree falls in the woods and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?

An inspiring accumulation of some real natural beauty.
