Our gorgeous galaxy is once again the focus of an astrophotography collection. Travel photography blog Capture the Atlas has published its Milky Way Photographer of the Year gallery for 2023, including some astonishing shots of the starriest of night skies.

on a tripod, a photographer might take a pic (quick exposure) in
daylight hours, then a longer exposure at night.
