We hope that all of us people of the Earth are able to remain as healthy and safe as possible during this time and that we're able to do our best to be good stewards of the planet that we all share.
We made these Earth lights two years ago to celebrate Earth Day.
The world feels vastly different today! But the Earth keeps on going, with or without us, regardless of the quantity or type of 120nm particles floating around our environment or in us.
The flowers are blooming, the trees are full of fresh growth, and in a positive development, our carbon emissions have sharply declined as we do our best to slow the spread of this pandemic while we ramp up testing capacity, medical treatment, and vaccine development.

I went to get a stronger string and hung the bike from two strings to reduce the tension. This time the strings didn't snap, and after a few pendulum-y tries that resulted in motion blur, I finally started getting some decent images. 4/4
The making of this photo (M232R shown): This one we managed to do with just a single person. Michael commented on our last image about how he set up his kickstand, set his e-bike throttle on and then used his phone's shutter delay. 1/4
The plan was to spin the wheel then run back to press the shutter button and see how things looked. First spin: the string snaps and the bike falls over. It was kind of funny and kind of annoying. 3/4
It took a few hours and we didn't finish until near midnight and in the end were able to take home a few images that we'd be able to use for a long time. 7/7
A bit on the backstory behind this photo: We needed to do a photo shoot for our new-at-the-time M232. We set up 2 bicycles with lights, brought spare lights, batteries, zip ties and cutters for installation, camera equipment and a bucket for water. 1/n
The wheel spinning person spun the wheel while the bike-holding person held up the wheel, the camera person pressed the shutter. If everything worked out ok and the flashes were set at the right power, we could get a nice sharp image with a wheel full of color. 6/n
