Another nebulous sequence with, as often, different elements drawn or shot on the fly, such as this photo of a Mediterranean sky where, in a weird way, some clouds undulate like the water they overhang:

On a background of real aquatic surfaces, the compositions presented in the "clouds" section appear and disappear throughout the four movements of the sequence.

Plane trails in the Paris sky, boat wakes in the Arcachon basin or the Mediterranean sea, pure drawn elements ... and sometimes the passage of a bird not really desired, but difficult to erase from the original video.

Where we find the natural elements appearing in the last two sequences, in different arrangements and colours, in an almost unchanged chronological order.

First version of the sequence: a rather fast running of the elements ...

Second version of the sequence: slower running and the dominant blue colour ...

Third version: even slower, and all in black and white except for a few seconds.

Water again, here in all its states: vaporous, liquid or solid.

first movement: the volutes emitted by the geysers of El Tatio in Chile, the swell near South Georgia and the ice of the Antarctic Peninsula.

second movement: the waves of the Arctic and Antarctic oceans.

third movement: the sprawling expanses of Lake Titicaca or the Pacific off the coast of Peru, and again the geysers of El Tatio.
