Star trails swirl above the lights of Poncha Springs, Colorado like snow flurries in the night.
Details: this image is the result of more than 75 minutes of exposure time and shows just how much the stars move in an hour. The camera is on a ridge overlooking the small (but bright) town of Poncha Springs and is pointed northwest toward the 14,000 foot Mount Antero and the continental divide on this cold and clear November night.
