Lights of Time
Jung Hwangbo
Sometimes, when I'm struck by the sheer beauty of the sky, I instinctively reach for my phone to immortalize that fleeting moment in a photograph. While I'm not particularly inclined towards photography, my photo collection boasts an abundance of landscape shots capturing the ethereal expanse above. Puzzled by this trend, I've pondered the reason behind it, only to realize that amidst the bustling urban landscape, the clear azure sky and the picturesque clouds offer a peaceful respite, momentarily easing the weight of the world off my shoulders. It's akin to discovering a small pocket of happiness nestled within the mundane everyday life.
Through my endeavor dubbed Lights of Time, I aspire to share this personal sanctuary of mine with others. I envisioned to craft a photo book that encapsulates the vivid blues of the sky, the warmth of the setting sun, and the serene embrace of the night, inviting viewers to pause and indulge in a moment of tranquility. Utilizing the transformative power of photography, which serves as a humble vessel for preserving time and emotions, I aim to showcase the skies that have witnessed the gamut of my emotions—from wistful regrets to unbridled joy—creating a tapestry where conflicting emotions intertwine harmoniously.
