Description
Third place winner in the 2023 IAU OAE Astrophotography Contest, category Still images of sunrise and sunset locations over the year: Where the Sun Sets Every Month, by John Paul Pile.
Taken with a smartphone from San Rafael, Bulacan, Philippines, this series of images capture the changing position of sunset over the year owing to Earth’s axial tilt and orbit around the Sun. From January to December 2022, each image reflects the changing backdrop and position of the Sun at dusk. Observe the changing foliage and the appearance of an electricity pole in October. This collection serves as a visual testament to the celestial dance between Earth and the Sun, and the natural transformations on the ground.
