Not only does Wilkes shoot \u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eover 1,500 exposures from a fixed angle\u003c\/span\u003e, he also distills this visual information afterward in his studio, painstakingly composing selected frames into a single image.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eDay to Night\u003c\/span\u003e presents \u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003e60 epic panoramas \u003c\/span\u003ecreated between 2009 and 2018, shot everywhere from Africa’s Serengeti to the Champs-Élysées in Paris, from the Grand Canyon to Coney Island, from Trafalgar Square to Red Square. Each composition is \u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003ea labor of love as well as patience\u003c\/span\u003e. Wilkes waited more than two years to gain permission to photograph Pope Francis celebrating Easter mass in the Vatican, ultimately producing a vivid tableau in which the pontiff appears 10 times.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book also features \u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eextraordinary details—works of art in their own right that highlight the stories contained within each image\u003c\/span\u003e. A bride makes her way through Central Park; in Tanzania, zebras gather around a near-invisible watering hole during a drought; in Rio de Janeiro, surfers come and go while a man holds a sign reading “No more than two questions per customer.” \u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003e“It is exactly these small stories, these details, that draw people into the photographs,”\u003c\/span\u003e says Wilkes. Once discovered, these mini narratives lend each composition a personal, candid feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis collection takes us on a seamless trip from dawn to dark across the world’s most iconic locations, unveiling \u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003ethe unique ebb and flow of man-made and natural landmarks like never before\u003c\/span\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"CAP BOOKSHOP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52209116152117,"sku":"9783836562690","price":34.0,"currency_code":"KWD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0965\/4157\/3429\/files\/715ePdqfZL._SY385.jpg?v=1768477447","url":"https:\/\/capbookshop.com\/products\/stephen-wilkes-day-to-night","provider":"CAP BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
