Description

'Open Skies'

This 360* view shows the entire sky and horizon at once. Many features of the night sky are shown by this 16 minute tracked exposure compensating for the Earth's rotation(). The farm lights at the horizon are shown moving as streaks of light rather than the stars trailing. The conditions couldn't have been better that night. I actually set up on the roof of my minivan to get a better view of the horizon or else I would have been blocking a good portion of that and the sky. Towns are labeled to give a feel for the dark location.
