One place beneath the stars.
A universe of detail above it.

I’m Nick Hartman. This collection brings together photographs from Black Mesa, Oklahoma: the last light along the horizon, the blue glow of reflection nebulae, and the intricate clouds hidden between the stars.
Each image offers another way to look at the same sky, from the view above the landscape to the detail revealed through a telescope.
