Starry night timelapse over historic farm in Lake Placid, New York
QUOTING Noel: Our Milky Way Galaxy core glows behind this historic farm in Lake Placid, New York. Did you know the Milky Way is only visible for about another month this year? It took about 3 hours to capture this scene utilizing long exposure photography on a full frame sensor.
It took ~26,000 years for the light to travel through space and reach Earth. Some of the bright objects here include the Lagoon Nebula (bright pink glow), Dark Horse Nebula, Antares (yellow glow), and Sagittarius A* (supermassive black hole at our galactic center).

TECHNIQUE & EXIF: Timelapse • Captured using an astro-modified Sony a7IV camera (with a 24mm lens) that allows it to capture the bright nebulosity and detail. Some people say humans can’t see this…but did you know that our eyes are not designed for use at night? An owl’s eyes are 10-100 times more sensitive to light at night and would see the night sky in much more vivid display!
We only see the Milky Way sky in shades of gray, via the rod sensors in our retina. Our cones, which capture the color images sent to our brain, are 1,000 times less sensitive than our rods, which is one of the reasons we don't notice the beautiful colors you are seeing in this timelapse.
