Christopher Forden, Cosmic Reflections: The Forgotten Machine (LANDSCAPE & ENVIRONMENT 2024)

Capturing the surreal beauty of Lake Tyrrell at night has been an unforgettable experience! This stunning landscape in Victoria is not just known for its breathtaking salt flats, but also for the mesmerising reflections it creates under the vast starry sky. The vibrant hues in the water create an ethereal effect, with the dredge emerging as a silhouette, reminding us of the stories and histories tied to this unique location. It’s a powerful reminder of nature’s resilience, juxtaposed with the remnants of industry. I can still remember as I stood there, immersed in the stillness, I felt a connection to the universe that was both humbling and inspiring. Moments like these bring perspective, encouraging us to appreciate the beauty around us and the mysteries of our world.
