still bathed in sunlight, the International Space Station arced through the evening sky over lake Wulfsahl-Gusborn in northern Germany, just after sunset on march 25
the familiar constellation of Orion can be seen left of the trail of the orbital station's bright passage
on the right, Venus is the brilliant evening star above the western horizon
with the camera fixed to a tripod, this scene was captured in a series of five exposures
how can you tell ?
the short time delay between the end of one exposure and the beginning of the next leaves small gaps in the ISS light trail
look closely and you'll also see that the sky that appears to be above the horizon is actually a reflection though
the final image has been vertically inverted and the night skyscape recorded in the mirror-like waters of the small lake
