This Dubai-Based Astrographer’s Photos Of The Night Sky Are Surreal
There’s so much talent living here in Dubai that we’re always left surprised. We recently came across photos by a very talented Dubai-based astrophotographer and they’re nothing short of stunning.
Florian Kriechbaumer wears a lot of hats: he’s a part-time DJ, a writer, the COO of an electronics firm, and he’s also an astrophotographer. The best part about his photos is that they’re shot here in the UAE.
This is a photo of the International Space Station with the moon as a backdrop.
Absolutely stunning image of the ISS transiting the Moon.
