All in One

A Notable Photo of the 2016 International Earth & Sky Photo Contest
From the photographer: “Some fresh Haybales in the foreground, and a sky filled with astronomical Beauties. First, the majestic Milky Way rising in the early morning, then the Zodiacal light, the planets Saturn, Venus and Mercury aligned, and lastly, a Red Sprite lightning in the center of the image. The sprites are pretty rare, and not so often captured.”

Technical details: Single-Exposure by Canon 6d + Rokinon 14mm f2.8, 25s, ISO 6400″
