俄勒冈海岸的海与天之辉光

Sea and Sky Glows over the Oregon Coast

Explanation: Every step caused the sand to light up blue. That glow was bioluminescence — a blue radiance that also lights the surf in this surreal scene captured in mid-2018 at Meyer’s Creek Beach in Oregon, USA. Volcanic stacks dot the foreground sea, while a thin fog layer scatters light on the horizon. The rays of light spreading from the left horizon were created by car headlights on the Oregon Coast Highway (US 101), while the orange light on the right horizon emanates from a fishing boat. Visible far in the distance is the band of our Milky Way Galaxy, appearing to rise from a dark rocky outcrop. Sixteen images were added together to bring up the background Milky Way and to reduce noise.

说明: 每次举步沙都会发出蓝光。在这片2018年中月摄于美国俄勒冈州迈尔溪海滩的超现实景观里，这种泛蓝的生物性发光，也照亮了涌浪（译注：俗称蓝眼泪）。影像里，火山活动留下的海蚀柱，散布在前景的海面，而薄雾则散射了地平面附近的灯火。其中，左侧地平线附近的束状辉光，来自行驶于俄勒冈海岸高速公路（US 101）上的车辆之头灯，右侧地平线附近的橙色晕光则是来自一艘渔船。后方的远处，则有看似从黝黑岩石露头后方升起的银河系中央盘面。这幅影像总共叠加了16张照片，以带出背景的银河及减少噪点。
