On Christmas Eve, Joel and I returned once more to Bridgewater Bay, moving with an unspoken attentiveness. I carried an infrared camera, its built-in sensor paired with an N520 filter, tuned to a spectrum beyond ordinary sight. Through it, the bay was reimagined: leaves flared into luminous cyan-green, the sky softened into an unexpected wash of yellow, and the stones along the shore gleamed silver-white, as if polished by an unseen hand. What was familiar dissolved into a quiet, otherworldly clarity, the landscape rewritten in light that exists just outside human perception.
Joel, meanwhile, wore a full lumberjack’s beard—dense, deliberate, and carefully tended. He watched over it with the same devotion one gives a toddler, adjusting and smoothing it as we walked. Against the surreal palette of infrared colour, his presence felt grounding and intimate, a reminder that while the camera translated the world into unseen wavelengths, we remained firmly, warmly human within it.
