✨ A few weeks ago, I took advantage of the exceptional conditions to go out and see the stars ✨

That night, I decided to go to Lac de la Noire then to the Blanchet lakes, located at the bottom of the Queyras valley. 🏔
The idea was both to take advantage of the area and to continue to get to grips with the new photo equipment.

While waiting for the other photographs taken that night, I am sharing with you a photograph of the lower lake of Blanchet lakes, perched at an altitude of 2748m. 🌌

No less than 23kg of equipment on your back to complete a total of 11.3 km of hiking for 922m of positive elevation.

I left at 6:30 p.m., went to bed under the stars, with just my sleeping bag, around 12:30 a.m. to get up at 4:00 a.m. and do the rest of my projects. I hadn't managed to sleep but what a joy to find myself there, in the middle of these earthly and celestial elements. In absolute calm.

Have you ever risked it? To put yourself in that kind of mood? ✨

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
