For a long time, I had wanted to try to shoot the milky way. So one fine night I decided to drive about a 100 kms away from my place to get to minimum light pollution sort of area and as I was driving I came across this empty field with two trees and nothing else. This was exactly the image I had in mind when I started driving. So I pulled over and as my eyes settled to the darkness, I was awestruck with the clarity of the Milkyway and the sky. This photo consists of three photos stitched together to get everything into the frame. People don't often take portrait shots of nature but for this particular photo, this is exactly the composition I had wanted
