I wanted to share my latest night sky timelapse from Jasper National Park! I took over 2,000 photos in just two nights time to create this and I can’t wait to go back. Jasper had some of the most beautiful dark skies I’ve ever seen.

Locations featured in this video: Lake Annette, Pyramid Lake, Maligne Lake and Athabasca Glacier.

Gear used: Nikon D800E | Nikon 14-24 f/2.8 | Feisol Tripods | Dynamic Perception Stage One

Thank you, Jack!
