Boot Arch Perseids by Mike Abramyan

The Perseid meteor shower occurs every August. Each meteor is painstakingly aligned to its true location in the night sky. The final depiction shows all the meteors captured, combined into one frame – as if the Earth hadn’t been rotating and all the meteors had fallen at once.

Double Milky Way Arch Over Matterhorn by Angel Fux

This image captures the rare double arch Milky Way, where both the winter Milky Way (with Orion rising) and the summer Milky Way (with the galactic centre) appear in the same night – a seamless transition between seasons. Taken at 3,200 metres. This is a time blend, preserving the real positions of both arches by combining frames taken hours apart, with the foreground captured at dawn for the best detail.

Winter Fairy Tale by Uroš Fink

A panorama of the winter Milky Way with reddish nebulae, stretching above Dobratsch. The sky was magnificent, with Jupiter and Mars shining brightly. In the foreground is a cabin.

Blossom by Ethan Su

The Yushan alpine rhododendrons are finally in bloom once again on Taiwan’s 3,000-metre-high Hehuan mountain. A solar flare from active region AR3664 reached Earth that evening, intensifying the airglow and adding an otherworldly touch to the sky. Together, these rare natural events created a breathtaking scene – vivid blooms glowing softly beneath a star-filled sky.
