Description

"Above the Earth"
Cossatot River State Park, Wickes, Arkansas

This mesmerizing image was made at Cossatot River State Park in Arkansas. This is a combination of 90 images merged into one image to show the magic of our night sky and the beautiful stars. Combining the images creates the star trails that you see in this image.

It was pitch black standing down by the river as I waited for the nightscape to reveal the millions of stars in the sky. The darker the sky became the more stars you could see until the sky was covered in stars. Beautiful sight to just sit in the quiet darkness and watch as Mother Nature reveals the true beauty of the night.

Notice the lights on the bridge railing and reflected in the river below. The cars and trucks traveling through the frame from right to left illuminated the sides of the railing producing the effect you see here.

"Man must rise above the Earth—to the top of the atmosphere and beyond—for only thus will he fully understand the world in which he lives." - Socrates, Philosopher
