Image Details:

The Milky Way has recently risen in the east around 3am. This star trail of the rising Milky Way is like a beautiful pattern drawn on a loom. It is a superposition of 12 photos, each taken 10 minutes apart, for a total of 111 minutes. The recorded time is from 3:30 am to 5:21 am on February 18, 2023. The landscape is Taiwan's famous holy ridgeline, all of which are steep mountain ridgelines over 3,000 meters high. The light below is actually the waning crescent Moon just rising from the top of the mountain at 5:20 am.
