Ever see time-lapse videos? There is something similar in photography called time-lapse photography. In time-lapse photography, a photo catches the happenings in one area over a certain period of time and the photo reflects that whole time period. Actually I don’t even know if it is really called time-lapse photography; I am just calling it that for explanation purposes.

In any case, a time-lapse photo is exactly what Jack Fusco shot of the night sky over the Atlantic as seen from Strathmere, New Jersey. The result? A beautiful photo of star trails over the Atlantic. Check it out for yourself:
