Another shot from my recent trip to the salt lake. This time not using a gel in the flash - hence the salt lakes being white. The zodiacal light creating a shimmering bridge to the core of the milky way before the pre-dawn light starts coming through.
The zodiacal light is from the sun reflecting off dust in the inner solar system and creating a triangle of light either pre-dawn or post dusk.
Here is the blog post from the trip http://astrophotobear.com/astrophotography-dying-earth/
Thought I might give a shout out to a friend of of mine Ingrid - https://500px.com/IngridKjelling whose nordic past made me think of the name. She found me through 500px and just goes to show that some friendships can be built here.
