2016 Insight Astronomy Photographer of the Year Competition

Monument Stars, Monument Valley, US. Despite being taken during the lunar eclipse of 2015, Albert Dros actually didn’t shoot the moon but took the opportunity to capture the amazing dark sky. Coming from a country (the Netherlands) with so much light pollution, this marked the first time the photographer had seen the Milky Way so clearly. The red glow in the sky is from the extraordinary atmosphere during the lunar eclipse – an experience Dros said he would never forget. This shot is a panorama comprised of three vertical shots.
