While watching the light painting, I fell in love with the beauty of the video.

[@JeanLucCoulon]

Une magnifique histoire. Des vues superbes. Les gestes, les mouvements, les postures de Kim sur ce miroir sont absolument magnifiques. Merci à tous les deux pour ces moments magique et cette émotion.

[@Ericpare]

Merci Jean-Luc! Ce voyage est remplis de moments grandiôses ::)))

[@JeanLucCoulon]

C’est pour ça que lorsque Kim dit "Failed", on peut se dire qu’on aimerait bien tous échouer un jour de cette manière-là. En tous les cas merci beaucoup à vous deux. C’est vivant et c’est beau. P.S. J’ai aussi traduit celui-ci :)

[@honda86tb]

Absolutely gorgeous

[@rubenmartinez2543]

A thousand thank yous for all you guys do and share!!! So flippin inspiring!!! 🙏🙏🙏✌️✌️✌️

[@Ericpare]

thanks Ruben :::)

[@servandomorales8765]

What a fantastic opportunity to at least try to capture what you envision. Always such great attitudes fro you both!

[@Ericpare]

thanks my friend! We know it's just going to be a good reason to go back there :D

[@DeathValleyDazed]

No fail here from my perspective. Thanks for working so hard on every aspect of this video from traveling, toting tiptoeing, talking and taking. From the salt crystals on the camera to Kim's drone shot floating ahead of that triangle angle, total eye candy.

[@Ericpare]

Hey thanks :) I think it was harder to make the video (edited in 24 hours sitting in front of a computer) than to film it ::)))

[@davidstyv2842]

un endroit fabuleux, et même si la lune n'a pas été de la partie, préférant se cacher derrière un voile nuageux, les images (photos et videos...argghhh le passage en drone avec Kim, c'était juste sublime) que vous avez produites sont tout autant magiques. et comme l'a dit Eric, ce sera pour une prochaine fois. merci encore de partager vos expériences ici.

[@scottb7946]

you guys are so entertaining, even if I was not into photography I would still watch these. Thank you!

[@eduardomedeiros8308]

Eric, the pictures are astonishing. You and Kim are great professionals working in extreme conditions and hoping for a perfect weather. I know it is frustrating when the things are not the way you thought, but you both are incredible artists. The art of catching the light is not simple, but you have done an amazing job.

[@FrancescoSpingola]

scenes from 7:52 to 7:58 are really mind tripping! It seems that Kim is walking on a big balcony and in front of her there's a big gap, a big gulch under her feet, that's a great illusory effect! It seems that under her feet there is the sky, the heaven...wow just amazing!

[@Ericpare]

yeah that place is even crazier in real. We'll probably go back many times again ::)) thanks :D

[@uncone4851]

This is by far my favorite episode!!! So powerful full of emotion and the drone footage of Kim is breathtaking!!! Unbelievable, so inspiring....

[@DavidMaciasPhoto]

WOW, I almost cried, so heartbreaking but such is the photography game when you are dealing with Mother Nature, it's always on her terms. Awesome work, I would love to do this.

[@Ericpare]

Thanks David! This is our favorite video, favorite experience, favorite place. It means a lot when we see that people take the time to watch it all :))

[@LightPaintingPhotography]

Absolutely fantastic episode even without the moon, the visuals are gorgeous! Great work Kim and Eric.

[@Ericpare]

hey thanks Jason ::))

[@GiannicolaVentrella]

Fantastic! You are Fantastic Eric e Kim thank you!

[@TravelLikeWeDo]

Goddess Kim danced her way to win hearts, I loved the drone footage and dancing. Sorry Eric you missed it this time ...better luck next time. The video shows how good and dedicated photographer u are .love your creativity

[@Ericpare]

It's all good, we were not sad, we had a great time :) And yes, breakfast was good. Thanks Anindita ::))

[@TravelLikeWeDo]

Eric Paré you know my name 🤔

[@azlanarainkhan4549]

Great knowledge I like your Work Lots of patience.

[@MikeJamesMedia]

You two are creating such incredibly beautiful images! Even the drone shots of Kim wading into the scene, with the wake behind her, is just gorgeous. I understand that compared to your goal, it was a "fail" for you, but to me, some of the images you captured are wonderful. Thank you for all the effort, and best wishes to you both!

[@Ericpare]

thanks Mike for your constant support. Of course the overall project is not a fail. I think we had a fun story and created some interesting pictures along the way. I'm currently writing a blog post to give more details about this. :)

[@JamesSmeaton79]

The drone work was incredible, guys, this is so much work to do all this, very inspirational. FOR THE ART!!!

[@ericguamancinca2314]

Enhorabuena chicos gran trabajo 😉🤗🤗🤗

[@ggallegosm]

Awesome story! I know why you couldn't catch Meztli (the moon)... "She" was too shy after Kim's performance and poses... Kim really shines on the video and of course on the pictures. She totally dominates her moves and she does it better every time. And you are so capable to capturing the swift movements, you both create visual poetry! And this story, even more than 20 min length, ended too soon... thanks for sharing this chapter of your amazing life adventure.

[@hugochinaglia4743]

Damn! I was cheering so much for you guys! Hope you can get it next time

[@jayniki1514]

Ture creative spirit! Salute!

[@doumepatrice7597]

Kim et Eric vous avez un incroyable talent, de l'imagination et beaucoup de courage! MERCI pour tous ces moments magiques que nous ne pouvons vivre que par procuration et qui sont tellement artistiques. Est ce que vous commercialisez vos clichés?

[@Christian-oq9nk]

Waoo Uyuni Bolivia

[@Cato501]

[@jitendraverma-bt2fh]

[@PauloFerreira08]

[@Charlie_wildlife_nature]

[@marc_macht.s]

you are so cool....i know how hard it can be sometimes and just sitting here and laughing...hahahah yeah men

[@westenbergerstephan5955]

WOW, such an awesome work! What a great inspiration!!! Can you tell more about how you built your flashlight tube? In the intro (sequence + 00:20...) the tube was built by yourselve or did you buy this somewhere? IF you've built it by yourself can you tell how.... Thanks.

[@jtorrescr]

Love it, I would like to know more about the logistic, what agency or guide did you use to arrive to there (once in Bolivia)

[@HectorPastor]

very interesting anyway so i can show it to my "model" ;-)

[@madtical777]

this is such an inspiring video!! beautiful images! mysterious world! i would love to go there!! a few questions: is it always cold in Uyuni? when is the best time to go ? and.. that is salt water correct? wouldn't it potentially damage a tripod?

[@anujsahakari]

What is the music at 7:50 ?

[@SteveChastain]

Hey guys....in one of the stories Kim mentions that you use a phone app to find your way back to your car (starting locations).....Can you tell me the name of the app and if it works without cell towers.

[@Ericpare]

Hey Steve!! ::) We use geotracker :D ......... and yes it works if you're offline

[@Deyvian77]

7:46 OMFG!!

[@Ericpare]

::)))

[@Deyvian77]

You are simple amazing. I follow you since years ago and I find fantastic you are always enthusiastic and inspired. Truly you deserve the best :)

[@Ericpare]

haha thanks! Here how it works: I always feel like I'm just at the beginning of something. It is always super exciting for me. I'm always eager for the next project! :::)

[@Ericpare]

*update* I wrote a full blog post about the technical details. Check this out: ericpare.com/photographing-the-salt-flats-of-uyuni-light-painting

[@BillyTzENDURO]

To bad moon did not work out but the other shots look magnificent :) Also the drone sequence! Does Kim walk barefoot in it? or is the ground too rough? really wonder how this salty ground is... I'm sure when dry it must be hard but in water? thanks!

[@Ericpare]

thanks Billy! She was wearing boots during that sequence. Most of the time, the salt is too crispy to walk barefoot. We talk about that in a few days/weeks :)

[@BillyTzENDURO]

Perfect thanks! :)

[@kimhenrydance]

I have thick skin under my feet, thanks to dance, but it's still pretty sharp. But when the salar is dry it's actually softer from what I experienced. Also, that morning I was wearing boots also because at sunrise the water is just freezing! ;)

[@paultrunfull3324]

Maybe next time guys, but some of the other images are awesome.

[@jitendraverma-bt2fh]

Next video aperture shutter speed and ISO

[@PokuPokuYeah]

Si tu veux te donner le maximum de chances d'avoir le soleil ou la lune exactement où tu veux dans ton cadre à une heure et à un endroit précis, tu devrais utiliser www.photoephemeris.com/ c'est juste parfait pour planifier tes shoots !

[@Ericpare]

Héhé je ne crois pas que tu te sois rendu jusqu'au bout (pardon, je sais, c'est long et j'aurais pu faire beaucoup plus court). L'app qu'on utilise est Photopills. Mais malheureusement, ces applications ne font pas partir les nuages méchants :::))
