"I was given something wonderful, something that changed me forever... A vision of the universe that tells us that we belong to something that is greater than ourselves, that we are *not*, that none of us are alone! No - no words. No words to describe it. Poetry! They should've sent a poet. So beautiful. So beautiful... I had no idea."

Behind The Scenes
This shot was inspired by three movies: Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within, Contact, and Interstellar. The last two are amongst my very favorites and gave way to the concept. The first one inspired the visual presentation. Used several different techniques to make the shot, and got to use the glass technique for the very first time--it had some water on top to help with the visual effect. Fun times. Really enjoyed working on this one. The quote is actually a combination of two other, and they are from the movie Contact.
