It seems that the sun was just shining outside the window. You take your eyes off the monitor - the Egyptian darkness. The day that had so much to do was over and the lanterns came on. Does it sound familiar? Photos of New York, taken by Stephen Wilkes, make it possible not only to compare the same streets at different times of the day, but also to feel how quickly time flies: you will not have time to look back, and the day has already turned into night.
New York is a city that never sleeps, and different authors talk about it differently. However, the photographs of New York in the night lights have already become familiar, and new artistic solutions are needed. A new take on urban photography is offered by Stephen Wilkes, a 20-year-old photographer who will soon be opening an exhibition in and around New York.
Who and tell about a wonderful city if not a native of New York? Although Stephen Wilkes went to study at the University of Syracuse in his youth, traveled a lot, lived in China, and now his photo studio is located in Connecticut, the talented photographer remembers the city of his childhood very well.
Stephen Wilkes has all the hallmarks of excellence and success: 5 major exhibitions in the last 5 years, collaboration with major magazines (such as Time, Vanity Fair, The New York Times Magazine), awards from various illustrated publications. The talented photographer's clients include the world famous companies IBM, American Express, Nike and Rolex.
Stephen Wilkes' creative project "Day to Night" is a photograph of New York in which light and darkness are bizarrely combined. Night - to the left, day - to the right? Not always. Sometimes you need to look closely at the pictures in order to understand where the desired "light divide" is.
For each view of New York, an experienced photographer spent about 10 hours and hundreds of frames (they were all taken from one point). Then Stephen Wilkes cut the city photographs into dozens of pieces (usually from 30 to 50), and then put the puzzle together again, but in such a way that he would argue between day and night within the same image. The result of many hours of work is really impressive.

Because of what the first wife of Marshal Tukhachevsky was shot, and why the loving officer was shot
Marshal Tukhachevsky is considered one of the most controversial Soviet military leaders. Moreover, the fluctuations in the opinions of historians are very wide. The repressed marshal is called both a stupid retrograde and a brilliant seer, while the argumentation in each case is convincing. Tukhachevsky remained the youngest marshal of the USSR in history, having received such a high rank at only 42 years old. In his memoirs, Baron Peter Wrangel referred to him as "imagining himself to be a Russian Napoleon." I agreed with Wrangel and
When Night Falls: 20 Stunning Photos of Incredible Time of Day
Night is the time when the world becomes a little different: the colors seem to be turned inside out, the border between reality and imagination is blurred, everything freezes and seems to stop breathing.

In this selection of photos - all the variety of night time from all over the world

One million coffee beans. One World, One Family, One Coffee: another mosaic of Saimir Strati
This Albanian maestro, multiple "record holder" for mosaics, Saimir Strati, has already been met by the readers of Culturology.Ru on the pages of the site. It was he who created a painting of 300,000 screws and a portrait of Leonardo da Vinci from nails, and also laid out images from corks and toothpicks. And the new mosaic, on which the author is working today, probably cost him more than one hundred cups of strong aromatic coffee, since he lays it out from a million coffee beans
