Light and Shadows of the City

Last night, I tested an LPR (Light Pollution Reduction) filter on the lens of my drone. Its purpose is to reduce the impact of artificial lighting — to soften the orange tones, restore depth to the sky and calmness to the water, allowing the night to regain its natural balance.
In this photograph, that effect is clearly visible — the sky is cooler, the water more serene, the light under control.
But there are things no filter can soften.
In the foreground remains a scene that feels as if it has been imposed on the space without a sense of measure or context. A form that does not converse with the city, but interrupts it. As if being seen mattered more than belonging.
And at that point, the photograph ceases to be just a night view.
It becomes a record of a time in which space is often shaped without dialogue — and the consequences are left to all of us.
However, yesterday some good winds blew in from the north — and for the first time, I am almost certain that even this misfortune here will not last much longer.

Sinoć sam testirao LPR (Light Pollution Reduction) filter na objektivu svoje bespilotne letelice. Njegova uloga je da smanji uticaj veštačkog osvetljenja — da utiša narandžaste tonove, vrati nebu dubinu i vodi mir, i da noć ponovo dobije svoju prirodnu ravnotežu.
Na ovoj fotografiji to se jasno oseća — nebo je hladnije, voda smirenija, svetlo pod kontrolom.
Ali postoje stvari koje nijedan filter ne može da ublaži.
U prvom planu ostaje prizor koji deluje kao da je u prostor unet bez osećaja za meru i kontekst. Forma koja ne razgovara sa gradom, već ga prekida. Kao da je važnije bilo da se vidi nego da se uklopi.
I tu fotografija prestaje da bude samo noćni prizor.
Postaje beleška o vremenu u kome se prostor često oblikuje bez dijaloga, a posledice ostaju svima nama.
Međutim, juče su dunuli neki dobri vetrovi sa severa — i sada sam gotovo siguran da i ova nesreća kod nas neće još dugo.
