📸 Magic Lantern returns! 📸


For about 200,000 people in the UK, this week is an absolute highlight of the year.

Glastonbury 2025 is about to kick off, one of the world's largest music and arts festivals.

This BBC documentary about the build of Arcadia, one of my favourite stages, is a great insight (featuring some great hyperlapse footage) into what it means to craft one of many experiences in the fields.

I look forward to capturing some fun hyperlapse clips on my 360 camera this year :)

The main developer left the project a few years later, but has now returned!
