Summer Reds [Explored]

In landscape astrophotography, we try to create a relation between the starry sky and the earthly foreground, and when I saw these red flowers with the dead trees behind them, I knew I had hit a nightscaper's jackpot.

 

The scene immediately reminded me of the red hydrogen emission nebulae and the galactic dark clouds and was perfectly positioned to align with the vertical Milky Way, which would be dominated by such structures later that night.

 

When the Milky Way had moved into position, some green and red airglow made the scene even more colorful than expected.
