Fixed Point
One spot on Lake Tahoe, many times a day, for many months.
The view from one spot
During COVID we left the Bay Area for Tahoe, because the internet was better there. (Yes, we left Silicon Valley for better bandwidth.) As we all navigated these strange and unusual times, we bunkered down. I was in the habit of waking up early and enjoyed watching the sunrise over the lake every morning while the family slept.
I got into the practice of taking a live photo from the same fixed point multiple times a day. The power of nature blew me away. At times the lake was still and quiet; other times the winds were intense and the distant shore disappeared. The colors were also incredible.
I stitched these live photos together into a video. At first, when I heard NPR or some other Spotify voice in the video, I was disappointed it wasn’t “clean,” but these moments are a snippet of time that I think is important to record.
