Based in the Pacific Northwest, photographerJay Shahis passionate about night photography.
Positioning himself at Arch Rock, he gave himself two evenings to photograph the event.
The two resulting images show how changes in the weather can dramatically alter the mood of the image.
The first night was clear, allowing Shah to capture star trails during the 15-minute exposure.
On the second night, the intense marine layer created a moody atmosphere.
In fact, visibility dropped just five minutes after Shah finished his 8.5-minute exposure.
Luckily, by timing things correctly, Shah was able to walk away both evenings with memorable images.
I find this challenge very motivating, and when I get it right, incredibly rewarding.
He hopes that others will see his work and see his passion for night photography.
