Martin Chen, Echoes of Eternity - Uluru Under the Milky Way (LANDSCAPE 2024)

Standing beneath the vast Milky Way, dwarfed by the majestic Uluru, I felt a profound awe. Ancient stories whispered by the Aboriginal people echoed in the silent landscape, resonating with the timeless rock and celestial spectacle. Beside Uluru, a captivating scene unfolded. The Field of Light, an ethereal sea of over 50,000 illuminated spheres, mimicked a dance across the desert floor. This uncanny juxtaposition of human creativity and the natural world sparked a sense of wonder and inspiration. Driven by these powerful encounters, I aimed to capture the essence of both worlds in a single frame. This image celebrates the coexistence of human creativity, the enduring beauty of the natural world, and the timeless stories whispered by the land and its people.
