Alien Forest: Milky Way photo

Alien Forest by Marcin Zajac is a Milky Way picture taken near Mono Lake, California. It's the final photo of the Milky Way Photographer of the Year 2023.

The photo features the mesmerizing natural wonder of Mono Lake's iconic tufa towers - strange, cream-colored rock formations that emerged as the lake's water levels dropped over time. These towers were created through a unique geological process, as underwater springs rich in calcium mixed with the carbonates in the lake's waters, resulting in the precipitation of limestone.

Marcin Zajac is a landscape photographer from Poland who resides in Northern California, working as a software engineer. His passion for photography has taken him to various breathtaking locations, including Australia's coastline and Iceland's rugged volcanic landscape. Marcin's work has earned recognition in multiple photography contests, such as being shortlisted four consecutive times (2019-2022) for the Astronomy Photographer of the Year by Royal Museum Greenwich and winning the People's Choice award in 2021. Additionally, he was awarded NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day in 2020 and placed among the top 101 photographs in the prestigious International Landscape Photographer of the Year competition in 2021.

Astrography isn't just a business; it's a sanctuary for anyone captivated by the stars, planets, and galaxies far, far away.
