This star trail I took from the International Space Station shows how orbital motion can warp visual phenomena. We ARCHIVED NASA Astronauts are used to photographing the Earth, but much like different wavelengths of light, there are entirely new and unique ways to perceive the same subject.
During International Space Station's early days, orbital motion created a challenge to take sharp night #photography. So I assembled a barn-door tracker from spare parts. Operated by a handheld drill, it counteracted orbital motion, allowing for the first clear images of cities at night.
Reflecting on reflections: working in the International Space Station Cupola setting up for a night pass of imagery while using a flashlight. I captured this moment as a self portrait. Nikon D3s, 8mm fisheye, f2.8, 1/10th sec, ISO 1600, Expedition 30, 2012
