Langdale Fell, Motion Frozen/Frozen Motion 1979

"Langdale Fell, Motion Frozen/Frozen Motion" is a black and white photograph by John Hilliard, created in 1979. The artwork features a waterfall captured with a long exposure, resulting in a visually abstract, ethereal rendition of the water's movement. The blurred, almost ghost-like cascade contrasts with the rock formations on the left side of the image, emphasizing the concept of time and the stillness versus motion within the natural world. This piece highlights Hilliard's fascination with conceptual photography and his exploration of the relationship between the viewer and the constructed image.
