MESMERIZING STAR TRAILS
MESMERIZING night sky photographs offer a spellbinding look at the stars.

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.
