Survivor Tree and Milky Way (July 15, 2013)

The lodgepole pine “Survivor Tree” on the high plains of Cypress Hills Interprovincial Park, Alberta, lit by moonlight with the Milky Way in the sky above. A single frame from a 250-frame time-lapse sequence, shot July 15, 2013. This is a 3-second exposure at f/2 with the 24mm lens and Canon 5D MkII at ISO 2000. This lone tree on the plains has survived fire, drought, being cut down and still remains as a historic landmark.
