Nightscape photography refers to the practice of capturing images of landscapes at night, typically featuring the night sky. This genre of photography often includes elements of the celestial, such as stars, the Milky Way, planets, and sometimes astronomical events like meteor showers or lunar eclipses. The landscape on Earth forms an integral part of the composition, providing context and contrast to the night sky. Popular subjects in nightscape photography include natural landscapes like mountains, forests, and bodies of water, as well as man-made structures like buildings or bridges, which are often juxtaposed against the backdrop of the starry sky. This type of photography requires specific techniques to manage low light conditions, like long exposure times, wide apertures, and high ISO settings. Nightscape images can reveal the beauty of the night sky and its interaction with the Earth's landscapes in ways not visible to the naked eye.
