Starry sky instead of city illumination
Six million seven hundred twenty two thousand sixteen
We, the inhabitants of large cities, the starry sky has long seemed dark and dim. Illumination of the metropolis, hundreds of thousands of flashing car headlights and lit apartment buildings and businesses, bright neon lights, street lamps and decorative garlands, deprives citizens of pleasure to witness the stars twinkling overhead, find and consider the constellations, make a wish during a meteor shower. Only away from the city, in the woods or in the mountains, we discover the real beauty of the starry sky. What would we see if for a few minutes all of the city plunged into darkness?
Photographer Thierry Cohen (Thierry Cohen) hopeless romantic. He even came up with the idea to "pay off" a giant metropolis to show people what they are missing out, not within the city limits. Scenic art project of a photographer called Darkened Cities — the city, immersed in darkness, lit only amazingly bright and clear sky, dotted with stars.
Fifty two million one hundred sixty eight thousand three hundred seventy seven
Dark and empty Shanghai, calm and quiet new York, a gloomy Los Angeles, Paris, immobilized, silent, sad Rio and San Francisco seem to be extinct, desolate, bleak and cold... But only until then, until you pay attention to the upper part of the photo. It's magical, incredible, amazing, the sky looks like it was sprinkled with myriads of sparkling diamonds of different carat, and now they shimmer and play faces, the rays of light.
Twenty million eight hundred fourteen thousand three hundred ninety
Of course, the photographer did not put down the town in the literal sense of the word. These photos he did for the city, but at the same latitude, to the same location of the stars in the night sky. And then he made two pictures, done on them little mind.
