MESMERIZING STAR TRAILS

MESMERIZING night sky photographs offer a spellbinding look at the stars. These pictures of star trails across Singapore, captured by photographer Justin Ng, features amazing patterns as stars appear to spiral through the sky. The 36 year old photographer started taking astronomical images after he accidentally captured the Milky Way in 2012, on a visit to Mount Bromo. ‘People are generally sceptical on star trails images taken in Singapore because the city is heavily light polluted,’ says Justin, of Singapore.
