Cosmos
The universe is in constant motion in many ways, ranging from slow movement following nice, predictable, easy-to-understand Newtonian physics to mind-blowing accelerating cosmic expansion. Please refer to Monty Python's Universe Song for more information! The black smudge along the bottom is a line of trees at the edge of the field I was shooting from, blurred by the motion of the sky tracker which rotates the camera at the same rate as the Earth, pointing continuously in a fixed direction in the sky. Really, it's nowhere near as complicated as it sounds! :)
Taken under the glorious dark sky of Killarney Provincial Park in Ontario, located about 30,000 light years from the centre of the Milky Way galaxy!
