银河与树
The Galaxy Tree

Explanation: First came the trees. In the town of Salamanca, Spain, the photographer noticed how distinctive a grove of oak trees looked after being pruned. Next came the galaxy. The photographer stayed up until 2 am, waiting until the Milky Way Galaxy rose above the level of a majestic looking oak. From this carefully chosen perspective, dust lanes in the galaxy appear to be natural continuations to branches of the tree. Last came the light. A flashlight was used on the far side of the tree to project a silhouette. By coincidence, other trees also appeared as similar silhouettes across the relatively bright horizon. The featured image was captured as a single 30-second frame in 2015 and processed to digitally enhance the Milky Way.

说明: 先说这些树吧。当时人在西班牙·萨拉曼卡市的摄影者，注意到一小片经过修剪、树形相当独特的橡树。接着是我们的银河系。摄影者苦撑到清晨2点，直到银河升到这些美丽的树之上。在这个精心选定的视角，银河的尘埃带看来像是树干的自然延伸。最后的则是光。一把放在树另一侧的手电筒勾勒出树的剪影。而位在相当明亮地平线附近的树，纯属意外的其剪影也很雷同。在这张摄于2015年的30秒单曝光主题影像里，银河经过数位强化处理。
