EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing beauty of circumpolar star trails above an old farmhouse in Alberta, Canada. Taken on July 16,2011, this nightscape showcases the ethereal celestial dance against a backdrop of rustic charm and natural serenity. The scene is illuminated by the soft glow of a full moon, casting its gentle light over the landscape and painting the sky with hues of blue. The long exposure photography technique used to capture this image creates blurred motion in the star trails, adding a sense of dynamic movement to the otherwise tranquil setting. The abandoned farmhouse stands as a testament to time's passage and nature's reclamation. Its weathered wood exterior tells tales of deterioration and obsolete existence, yet it remains rooted amidst its surroundings like an ancient guardian. Surrounded by trees and nestled within Alberta's countryside, this log cabin exudes both solitude and nostalgia. The concentric patterns formed by the star trails overhead mirror the constellations that have guided generations throughout history - including Polaris, known as Earth's North Star. In this photograph by Alan Dyer from Stocktrek Images, we witness not only a breathtaking display of astronomical wonders but also an appreciation for nature's ability to reclaim what was once man-made. It serves as a reminder that even in abandonment there can be beauty found within decay – where tranquility meets celestial grandeur under clear skies.
