Musings about photography, and the occasional visual essay.

Jetlagged night

Seven time zones eastwards. As much as you think you’re smarter than your body clock, that you learnt the tricks to beat it, jet lag still wins. You manage to fall asleep ‘round (the new) midnight, or so you think. Then you wake up in the middle of the (new) night, over and over again.

Cheoin-gu, Yongin-si, South Korea — Quarantine Day 5, 1:02am

Open your eyes, and the quarantine room takes new shapes, revealed by the artificial light out there. Might as well follow the ghosts, freeze them on the sensor to prove that, while you sleep, the world keeps being. Tonight, you’re just catching it in the act, as you wait for dawn to come.
