Moraine Valley
Rocky Mountain National Park

I have taken hundreds of long exposure photos at night, but this one has the most stars. That's because it was taken in a very dark spot in Rocky Mountain National Park. There aren't many truly dark places left in the United States--none within 80 miles of St. Louis. (The closest dark place is Mark Twain National Forest in southern Missouri.) Usually when I take a long exposure photo at night, the sky becomes bluish because of all the artificial and unnecessary light these days. The night sky is vanishing.
Shutter: 30 secs; Aperture: f/1.8; ISO: 800; Focal length: 35mm.
