Sky bridges offer a phenomenal view of the heavens and the earth. But you don’t necessarily need to visit one to achieve similar results. The right vantage point may be all you need – as astrophotographer Brennan Gilmore illustrates in this almost fantastical snapshot of a man crossing a bridge, seemingly floating in the nebulae!
“Bridge Over the Crimson Sky” by Brennan Gilmore (Via Reddit. Click image to see full size.)
For this shoot, Brennan used his Sony A7III camera and Sony 50mm f/1.2 lens and 24mm 1.4 lens. He also decided to go one further and layer not two but multiple separate images:
The image is a combination of four separate images: two exposures of the land one with the car passing and one with me on the bridge, plus two images of the sky: one full spectrum and one only capturing light in the wavelength of the hydrogen alpha.
One of the most unusual aspects of this image is its red tinge, though – which is not often highlighted in astrophotography. Timed just right, the central core of the bloody Milky Way looks almost foreboding, ominous, or pre-apocalyptic instead of galactic.
Brennan actually achieved this tone by removing his stock filter, making the sensor ultra-sensitive to all red wavelengths present. The way that the river beneath and the car lights almost mirror the crimson sky simply sets the image off.
