Incredible time-lapse shows the Milky Way from the plains of South Dakota The spiral galaxy that is the Milky Way is beautifully portrayed in the latest must-see time-lapse video shot by Randy Halverson. Halverson wowed us previously with his Sub-Zero time-lapse that was shot during the frigid midwestern winter. The snow has since melted and Halverson is back in the same locations, showing the awesome night skies of the South Dakota plains. The Milky Way, which has upwards of 400 billion stars, was captured by Halverson who spent the month of May shooting the footage when time and weather permitted. He said the biggest challenge was getting a clear night, as many were cloudy and windy, and few were clear enough for capturing the stars.

She can be spotted in and around Tokyo, equipped with her SLR and her self-timer. When she feels the moment strike, she presses the shutter button down and then, quite literally, "jumps" into place. What I love most about her shots is that they don't feel forced. Natsumi has a way of making us feel as though she naturally levitates throughout life.
