Judges comment: “ The judges kept coming back to what at first impression is quite a brutal nightscape image. The dark tones, solid star trails & heavy angular shapes of the quarry all add to a strong visual image. What blew us away was the confidence the photographer had in keeping their shutter open to the night sky for over half an hour! More often than not when making star trail images with a subject in front, multiple images are taken over a long period of time & composed together in post-production. But to make the decision to make this image in one shot is a bold move that paid off.”
