Olympic Ski Jumps | 04.07.2025

Olympic Ski Jumps | 04.07.2025

Lake Placid, New York

The night sky over the Olympic ski jumps in Lake Placid. The Adirondacks are among the darkest places in the Northeast, rated Bortle Class 2–3. But even here, light pollution is creeping in—as seen in the glow from Lake Placid Village. A child born today may see fewer than 250 stars growing up. In cities, that number drops to around 100. Under truly dark skies, we should be able to see over 5,000. These skies are worth protecting.

Milky Way Over Dickinson Fire Tower | 10.18.2024

The galactic core of the Milky Way rises over the Dickinson Hill Fire Tower in Grafton, New York. I added a red light illuminating the lookout cab for added contrast.

The Subtle and Complex Colors of the Milky Way

The subtle but complex colors of the Milky Way over Martin Dunham Reservoir in Grafton Lakes State Park.

The Milky Way gets its color from the combination of various stars and celestial objects that emit different wavelengths of light. The Milky Way is composed of billions of stars, along with interstellar gas and dust. The colors we see in the Milky Way are a result of the different temperatures and compositions of these stars and the interaction of their light with the surrounding interstellar matter.

Blue stars are typically hotter than red stars and emit more blue and ultraviolet light. Red stars, on the other hand, emit more red and infrared light. When we observe the Milky Way, the collective light from these stars creates a blend of colors, ranging from blue, white, and yellow to red. Additionally, interstellar dust can scatter and absorb light, affecting its color appearance. The result is the beautiful spectrum of colors that appears in photographs over a certain exposure time.
