Capture The Atlas has been showcasing some of the world’s best photographers for years, and their annual Milky Way Photographer of the Year contest never disappoints.
The photographers travel far and wide (even to space) to capture the magic of our incredible galaxy on display in the night sky. 🌌 The Milky Way galaxy has an estimated 100-400 billion stars in it, with at least that number of planets.
Now in its 8th edition, this collection features images from Chad, Northern Argentina, Socotra Island, Namibia, Australia, New Zealand, and more.
Below are some jaw dropping images from the collection. Photos used with permission.
