Stargazing Photographer of the Year 2017 waitlist

The Milky Way transcends a little radio telescope from a huge cluster at Miyun Station, National Astronomical Observatory of China, in suburbia of Beijing. The picture delineates the consistently developing light contamination we now encounter, which together with electromagnetic clamor has turned numerous optical and radio observatories close urban communities both visually impaired and hard of hearing – a fight that enlivened the photographic artist's title of the shot. The picture utilized a light contamination channel (iOptron L-Pro) and various casing stacking to get the vast majority of the Milky Way out of the city light.
