# Lunar-Lugging Photography Moon Walk by Ting Cheng is Astronomically Abnormal By Meghan Young | Published 2012-02-25 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moon-walk-by-ting-cheng References: [mymodernmet](http://www.mymodernmet.com/profiles/blogs/ting-cheng-moonwalk) & [ting-cheng](http://www.ting-cheng.com/) Moon Walk by Ting Cheng is a curious photo series that does not happen to be inspired by the classic Michael Jackson move. Instead, it quite literally refers to walking with a big moon. Although, in this case, the main character in the photo shoot is [rollerskating](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moon-boot-sneaker) to all of her destinations. Quirky and playful, she remains a faceless person in the presence of the overwhelming moon. Shot in a city setting, Moon Walk by Ting Cheng is filled with color and sun, which makes the context of the shoot even more odd since [the moon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ode-to-the-moon) is a creature of the night. It is as though the model is lugging around a [lunar treasure](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lumoon) that she stole from the sky. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.1/10 - Popularity: 42% | Activity: 12% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/stylephotography) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Rollerskating Photography:** Tapping into the playful and retro aesthetic of rollerskating, photographers can create unique and eye-catching images. - **Nighttime in Daytime:** Exploring the contrast between nighttime elements, like the moon, in a daytime setting can result in intriguing and surreal photography. - **Unexpected Props:** Using unexpected props, such as a large moon, can add an element of surprise and intrigue to photo shoots. ### Where This Applies - **Photography:** Photography professionals can incorporate rollerskating and unconventional props into their work to stand out and attract new clients. - **Fashion:** Fashion brands can draw inspiration from the playful and whimsical aesthetic of Moon Walk by Ting Cheng to create engaging and memorable campaigns. - **Entertainment:** The entertainment industry can explore the concept of merging nighttime and daytime visuals to create visually stunning and captivating films or music videos. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Moon Landing-Themed Watch Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moon-walker.md) - [Lunar-Based Rotating Pavilions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moon-pavilion.md) - [Moon-Bound Architectural Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moonhouse-project.md) - [Lunar-Inspired Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cloudzone-moon.md) - [Lightweight Gliding Walker Boosters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moonwalkers-aero.md) - [Sculptural Lunar Lighting Solutions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moonsetter-floor-lamp.md) - [Textured Moon-Inspired Lighting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-phase-lamp.md) - [Ultra-Fast Walking Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shift-robotics-moonwalkers.md) - [Moon-Inspired Wall Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moon-trip-clock.md)
