Explanation:
Looking
toward
the east in the early hours of a
September morning this single exposure made with tripod and camera
captured a simple visual experience.
Rising above the tree-lined slope are familiar stars
in planet Earth's northern night and the
constellation Orion the Hunter.
Brighter stars marking the celestial Hunter's
shoulder (Betelgeuse), foot (Rigel), belt, and sword
are clearly reflected in the calm waters from northern
Latvia's Vitrupe river.
Of course,
winter is coming
to planet Earth's northern hemisphere.
By then Orion and this beautiful starry vista will
be seen
rising in early evening skies.
