Alien Light ©billpurvis

Inspired by Stephen Shore.
Movement, shape, shadow, reflections,
colour and light, and an exploration
of the image within the frame.
The ebb and flow, the wind in the rushes, the changing light,
the detritus on the river bed.
40 still frames on one canvas create for a moment a 3D
kaleidoscope.
This is  re-edited Gif from 2016.
