When Stars Wake
When Stars Wake, photo by Harold Davis.
As twilight fades to true night the stars wake. First, a few stars start to appear as pin pricks of light on a somewhat luminous background. As dark blue begins to fade to the black of night, a five minute exposure like this one will make the stars manifest themselves, trails and all.
