Description
River of Stars – Stars of the northern arm of the Milky Way (as seen from Maine) reflect in the river water in Boothbay, Maine. Nearly all of the stars and objects we see in the night sky are in our home galaxy the Milky Way. One item that is not in our galaxy is the Andromeda Galaxy. It can be seen in this photo… the bright fuzzy object at the lower right of center. The light we see from the Andromeda Galaxy take 2 ½ million years to reach Earth. July 1, 2022 – Boothbay, Maine, USA, Earth – Pentax K-1II, 15mm.
