With details highlighting the individual stories captured within each multi-moment image, this collection unveils a new way of seeing some of the world’s most iconic locations

Stephen Wilkes is a contemporary American photographer whose inventive technique allows him to capture the passage of time in a single image. In his Day to Night series, he photographs major metropolises and landscapes using two cameras—one which records daylight, the other night—blending the two together using a computer program, resulting in unreal panoramic images. “I like to describe myself as a collector of magical moments,” he has explained. “When people can see time, the face of time in a way, it’s this thing we can never put our hands around. But yet, when you look at it, it makes you feel a different way and there’s an emotional thing that happens and that’s exciting.”
