White Lake, New York - Astrophotography

This series of night-sky photographs was captured in Upstate New York, in the Catskill Mountains near White Lake and the historic London Cottages Resort. Although the Catskills are not considered a true dark-sky location, they still offer rewarding astrophotography opportunities under clear summer nights.

These images document a mix of calm lake reflections, starry skies framed by trees, distant clouds, and quiet rural roads illuminated only by starlight. They reflect a style of astrophotography that emphasizes atmosphere and place as much as the night sky itself.

All photographs were taken using a modified Canon EOS 60Da — a DSLR designed for astrophotography — paired with the ultra-wide-angle Canon EF 16–35mm f/2.8L II USM lens.
