Star Clouds over Arizona
This long-exposure photograph shows two very different types of clouds. In the foreground are Earth-based water clouds, with light from Phoenix, Arizona, creating a sunset effect. Far in the distance, the star clouds of our Milky Way Galaxy are visible, home to billions of stars like our Sun.
We cannot put this date's photograph on paper at poster size. We can print the nearest public archive plate to your date instead.
Prints are coming soon. The card is free to save and share in the meantime.
Released on your day
