He had to spend entire nights outside, braving freezing temperatures in the depths of the Australian winter near Bendigo over the scenic Lake Eppalock.

Captured using a long exposure lens, the trails are created as the Earth rotates, giving the impression of the stars moving across the sky.

star-wise, I remember when I was a tot looking
at the milkyway and thinking if thats our
galaxy, why isn't it round...
Then the epiphany of perspective hitting my
little brain like a bomb when I realized why
it isn't round.

Discovery is such an amazing thing especially
for kids.

And yes, go to any rural place far enough away from city lights and you'll see every star you could ever imagine.

I wish you all well.

That is a beautiful photo. My Mom use to do time lapse photography. Camp fires were pretty cool.

I love the colors and the star movement.
