Project note

The sky is the subject. The fieldcraft makes it believable.

Nightscape work sits between landscape photography and deep-sky practice. The location, timing, foreground, tracking, overlap, and final stitch all have to agree before the image can feel effortless.

This Joshua Tree panorama is a useful expression of Cyrus’s approach: plan deliberately, gather enough information in the field, and let the final frame preserve the scale of the experience.

A natural fit for outdoor equipment, dark-sky destinations, camera systems, tripods, tracking tools, and field-ready apparel.
