“Stained Grass” at Standley Lake in Westminster, CO

The photos below are  examples of some of the source material we use at Lumonics Immersed. They are still images from our projection. It begins with making videos while on our rides and hikes in Colorado: mountains, streams, forests, and roads. We then transform the imagery in production, and add an original soundtrack. We think of it as “alchemized nature films”. No AI is involved!

These photos of grasslands are stills from video we took at Standley Lake in Westminster, CO and “alchemized”. We call the photos “stained grass”, and will be in included in one of our video productions shown at Lumonics Immersed.
