Cosmic Symphony: Star Trails around Qutub Minar
This photograph shows the mesmerizing movements of the stars in one hour around the iconic Qutub Minar, inspired by the meaning of the word Qutub, which means axis or pole.
.
With 668 photos compiled together, this image portrays the movement of the stars around the pole star, which is precisely behind and a little lower than the small yellow light above the Qutub Minar. The intricate trails formed by the stars create a visual spectacle, reminding us of the profound connection between the universe and our planet.
This photograph beautifully blends astronomy and archaeology as it attempts to showcase this famous Indian monument from an entirely different perspective. It also reminds us to gaze at the stars from wherever we are.
