Cool Pictures of the Milky Way taken over Utah's spectacular canyons




Showcasing amazing pictures by photographer Royce Bair of the Milk Way soaring above the canyons of Bryce Canyon National Park, Salt Lake City, Utah. Royce Bair has been lecturing on night photography for 2 decades. Sure, Photoshop was used extensively in these pictures...but to amazing effect.

Bair says, 'My Nightscapes are exposures of the night sky with a landscape feature. All are evening time exposures.' 'Many are taken with special equipment in order expose the night stars without blurring. Some land features are enhanced with light painting.' I have been giving lectures and workshops, internationally, on night photography for two decades.'




Stunningly beautiful images capture the glory of the Milky Way taken with just a simple digital camera
