Photographing the night sky in the strange landscape of New Mexico

In the spring of 2020 I went on a roadtrip to New Mexico. With the pandemic in full swing it was the perfect time to drive to a remote desert and camp away from civilization for a few days. The landscape here looks otherworldly, especially once the sun sets and the stars appear. This is my favorite image from the trip. The bright objects to the left of the hoodoo are the planetary duo of Jupiter and Saturn which were unusually close that night.
