Night Sky
Lens: Rokinon 8mm Camera: K3 Photo Location: Death Valley ISO: 400 Shutter Speed: Above 6s

Pretty sure I haven't posted this exact image here before....I took a solo trip to Death Valley at the beginning of this month, to do some astrophotography. The yellow/orange light you see underneath the Milky Way is the light coming from Pahrump/Las Vegas....It was barely visible, but with a 30s exposure it made its presence...anyway, I was looking through my pictures from that trip and I wanted to post this one Enjoy

Thank you so much! I'm glad you like it. Being there really puts into perspective how tiny we really are.

That is indeed a most beautiful photo! Actually I think the glow from the town, actually adds to the beauty of the image.

Extremely well done!
