Stars trail above and urban lights sprawl below in this moonlit nightscape from Cape Town, South Africa, planet Earth. The looming form of Table Mountain almost seems to hold terrestrial lights at bay while the stars circle the planet’s South Celestial Pole. This modern perspective on the natural night sky was captured in June 2014, the scene composed of over nine hundred, stacked 30 second exposures. The stunning result was chosen as the winner in the Against the Lights category, a selection from over 800 entries in The World at Night’s 2015 International Earth and Sky Photo Contest.

在這個月光瀉下的夜景中,星星在空中劃過,城市的燈光在下方延展,這幅來自南非開普敦的影像描繪了壯觀的情景。高聳的桌山似乎在默默守護著地面的燈火,星星在地球的南天極圍繞旋轉。這個對自然夜空的現代詮釋是在2014年6月拍攝的,由超過900張堆疊而成的30秒長曝光組成。這幅驚艷的作品在《The World at Night》的2015年國際地球與天空攝影比賽中榮獲「Against the Lights」類別的冠軍,該比賽共收集了超過800幅作品。
