2GN2S ...
Cal Cole may be only 18 years old, but he's already getting attention for his time slice photography. The British student recently saw his creative photo of a pylon go viral on Reddit, which was a welcome surprise. One look at the photo and it's no surprise that it garnered so much attention.
Cole cleverly used the pylon as a sort of stained glass window. Indeed, its geometric architecture makes the perfect frame for the different colors of the sky that Cole photographed over the course of an hour. In total, 14 photographs were used to craft the image, which Cole says he is heavily influenced by the work of artist Alex Hyner. The post-production process took about five or six hours; and, initially, Cole wasn't quite sure what to make of the result.
“For a long time, I wasn’t sure how well it would turn out,” Cole tells My Modern Met. “But I sent the image to my friends— something I always do as they give me an honest opinion—and they said it was one of my best photos. That’s when I realized it was something I was very happy with.”
18-year-old Cal Cole shared how he edited his viral time slice photo, from 14 photos.
The final result is an image that shows the stunning colors of the sky.
And, some of photographer Cole's other time slice photos.
As for what the future holds, Cole is not quite sure. What he does know is that he hopes to embark on a creative career either in film, photography, or graphic design. Given what he's accomplished so far, we're sure that he'll reach his goal.

Your Sisters are fabulous, Jacki. I was thinking which one is the older sister. The blue dressed one seems to take care of the other, so she might be the older sister? And both are so pretty!
You got even two 2GN2S stories about 2 highly talented young men. I'm always happy to see what good ideas young people have. They surely will be able to solve our many problems.
Wishing you too a good and happy February.
Thank you Elenor, I have been finding some good, feel good stories lately. Ans, I don't think the younger kids get as much good press as they might. It seems to be much easier for the media to be negative. Happy, healthy February, dear Elenor!
Oh Sisters is just the best. The sister on the right reminds of a puppet called Madam. Did you ever see her?
Thanks, John. Yes, I do remember Madam! I hadn't thought of her until you mentioned her.
