About the artwork

The first view of the Milky Way in the new year is always something special - and this moment was both a première and a compromise. Another location was actually planned, but the weather made it impossible to get there. So I chose this spot - a snow-covered field on the edge of a slope, accompanied by a row of trees that act like silent sentinels in the dark. My car was parked not far away. It was deliberately within reach - not only as a place to retreat to in the cold, but also as a safety factor. A feeling of safety is essential, especially for night-time astrophotography.

The picture shows the galactic arc of the Milky Way stretching across the frosty snowy landscape on a clear winter's night. Above the snow, the starry sky appears particularly deep, almost tangible. The earth lies still, but the light of ancient stars circles above it. A gentle light pollution shimmers on the horizon - a yellow-orange glow that is reminiscent of the proximity of civilisation and at the same time emphasises the colours of the night sky.

Technically, the shot was a challenge: at temperatures below zero degrees, everything has to be quick and precise. The long exposure makes the stars shine, but it requires patience and sensitivity - and a steady hand despite cold fingers. The moment when the display shows the finished image is a small miracle every time.

The choice of this location - with the car nearby - was not just a compromise, but a statement. Safety is an often underestimated aspect of night photography. It's not just about equipment, but also about self-care. This shot was taken with a clear head, a calm heart - and a sense of control that is reflected in the imagery.

Those who engage with the night sky enter a space beyond the everyday. A stage of silence, depth and light. This picture tells of this - quietly, but hauntingly.

About Fototante
