Milky Way photo makes red terrain of Arizona look like an alien planet

[FfFfFfFF 58,120]

The red rock mountains in the American Southwest look like they belong on another planet. Photography further proves this fact, as shown by Derek Culver in his awe-inspiring image of the twisted rock formations of the Vermillion Cliffs Wilderness in Arizona.

This single photo is the result of many images snapped by Culver during that night. “I captured 48 x five-minute exposures of the same part of the sky,” he explains, “and stacked all those images together in a software called Pixinsight, [which is] used by NASA and other space agencies for processing pictures taken through space telescopes to extract data out of images using mathematical averages and photometry concepts.”

When I lived in the Appalachian mountains, one of the few good things living there was the starry views. Rural town in the mountains, you could see the faint arms of the milky way most nights (not like this, these are high exposure photos that cant be normally seen in real life, but the view still wouldve been pretty regardless)
