Description
Car light trails under a clear night sky full of stars.
I usually photograph the Milky Way galaxy's core. That night, however, I decided to photograph the opposite side. There were no clouds in the sky, and because there was no moon, the night sky was filled with bright stars. The Cassiopeia constellation can be found if you look closely. It is easily identified by its distinctive 'W' shape, which is formed by five bright stars. Just, look up above the trees in the image's center.
Cassiopeia is a constellation in the northern sky named after Greek mythology's vain queen Cassiopeia, mother of Andromeda, who boasted about her unrivaled beauty. Cassiopeia was one of the 48 constellations listed by the Greek astronomer Ptolemy in the second century, and it is still one of the 88 modern constellations today.
There was a road in front of the trees, and despite the late hour, there were some cars passing by. So I decided to capture some light trails so that the trees were illuminated by the light.
The stars and the faint Milky Way give the image a dreamy and ethereal look, in my opinion. Donโt you think?
