Fish-eye lens view of the night sky
The Milky Way. Fish-eye lens optical image of the night sky, showing part of the Milky Way. The brightest part of the Milky Way is the constella- tion of Sagittarius, which lies in the direction of the centre of our galaxy. The Milky Way is a luminous band in the sky caused by the light of stars which are too numerous to be seen individ- ually. The stars are numerous because an observer looking in their direction is viewing along the plane of our galaxys disk. The dark areas in the Milky Way are dust clouds which hide the stars behind them. The red areas around the outside of this image are ground-based lights. Photographed over Lake Titicaca in Bolivia during June

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing fish-eye lens view of the night sky, revealing the breathtaking beauty of our galaxy, the Milky Way. The image captures a portion of this luminous band that stretches across the sky, with its brightest section belonging to the constellation Sagittarius, positioned towards the center of our galactic home. The sheer multitude of stars visible in this photograph is awe-inspiring and serves as a reminder of their countless numbers. As we gaze upon this celestial spectacle, it becomes evident that these stars are so numerous because we are observing them along the plane of our galaxy's disk. However, some areas appear darker due to dust clouds obscuring these stellar wonders from sight. Adding an intriguing contrast to this cosmic panorama are vibrant red hues encircling its outer edges. These lights originate from ground-based sources and create a striking juxtaposition against the ethereal backdrop above. Taken over Lake Titicaca in Bolivia during June by Science Photo Library, this image invites us into an enchanting realm where science and art converge. It sparks curiosity about our place in the universe while showcasing nature's grandeur on display each night for those who dare to look up and wonder at what lies beyond our world.
