This two-minute exposure shows many more stars, fainter than what the eye can see. The diffusion filter accentuates the colors of the stars, while empathizing the pattern of brighter stars forming the familiar shape of the constellation. Polaris is the brightest star of this constellation, located at the end of the handle of The Little Dipper.

Equipment: Nikon Df, 50mm lens with a diffusion filter, and a star tracking platform.
