20th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Artistic
House under the Stars
Star trails caused by the earth's rotation in this long exposure image of an abandoned house in the desert of Namibia. The Great Magellanic Cloud, a galaxy about 150,000 light years from earth, is visible as the white patch on the right. The green sky hues originate from strong air glow present during this night.
