LIGHTS DOWN STARS UP EXHIBIT 2009

DISPLAYENTRANTS & WINNERS

HONOURABLE MENTION – ‘DARK SKY vs CITY SKY’ by Alister Ling and Luca Vanzella. This pair of images were shot from two different locations with similar cameras and the same exposure. It shows the number of stars that become visible as one travels outside of the city away from artificial lights. The dark sky is still affected by the light pollution because of the city glare which can be seen 200 km away.

DARK SKY VS CITY SKY:

• *DARK SKY – ALISTER LING: MARCH 23/09 22:08:25 MDT - FROM 60 KM OUTSIDE  EDMONTON – 15 SEC F4.5 ISO 1600 17MM LENS
