"Diamond Nights" by photographer Beth Moon - old trees under the starry sky

For the photo project, Beth Moon visited Namibia, Botswana, Italy, and toured the USA. For 14 years, the woman traveled the world in search of the oldest trees. Her pictures were included in the book "Ancient Trees: Portraits of Time". "Diamond Nights— is also a project about trees, only with an emphasis on night shooting.

The exposure in the photo erases the boundary between the visible and the invisible — here there is the splendor of the infinite cosmos and plants powerfully rooted into the ground.

The creation of the Moon series was inspired by scientific research on the connection of trees with the movement of celestial bodies.

Thanks to this series, Beth decided to switch from film black-and-white to digital color photography.
