A world in motion

Greg Meyer from Phoenix, Arizona

Star trails encircle the landscape of northern Arizona in this 360° image that uses a stereographic projection. In the “foreground” of the scene lies the photographer’s Starpoint Australis portable tent observatory. The photographer captured the star trails with an Insta360 X4 camera, stacking around five hundred 30-second images taken at f/1.9.
