Explanation:
This serene view from
the coast of Sweden looks across the Baltic sea
and compresses time, presenting the passage of one night in a
single photograph.
From sunset to sunrise,
moonlight
illuminates the creative sea and skyscape.
Fleeting clouds, fixed stars, and flowing
northern lights
leave their traces in
planet Earth's sky.
To construct the timelapse image,
3296 video frames were recorded on the night
of June's Full Moon between 7:04pm and 6:35am local time.
As time progresses
from left to right,
a single column of pixels was taken
from the corresponding
individual frame and combined in sequence into a single digital image
3296 pixels wide.
Happy
Birthday
APOD
