It was very hot night and I couldnt sleep.I take a chair and bring it outside of house,on meadow.Looking in milion of stars is like meditation.Then I see constelation of Great Bear over roof and take camera.
I have luck that town was behind hill on the other side and town lights didnt disturb me.
Stars in towns are very poor because of light pollution.

The seven brightest stars of the constellation Ursa Major, the Great Bear, form a well-known asterism that has been recognized as a distinct grouping in many cultures from time immemorial.

Hi Vlado,

Unusual and very odd the yellow-red windows with the Great Bear constellation above.

Hi Vlado,
Wonderful view on the Big Dipper, or better known as Ursa Major.
Idea and composition is wonderful taken...very nice work.
Regards, Henk

This is gorgeous and I believe what makes it super special is having that hoouse with the lit windows. A beautifully sharp photo and thecomposition is great.

On an another note. Last night Friends and I went for a late night hike around 11PM (it's too hot to go in the day time) and I was looking at the same constelation, wonderingout loud about how beautiful our world actually is when seen from a distance.

one of the most beautiful
night picture i ever seen ..
you make me dreaming Vlado!

Hello Vlado
Nice night shot with the house and its colour windows. Besides UMa you`ve captured also the North Star and the constellation of Canes Venatici :).
Have a nice day and sleep well ;)

Bonjour Vlado
c'est une très belle photo avec uniquement ces fenêtres éclairées et cette immensité au-dessus. Bravo pour cette fantastique photo de nuit
amicalement
Xavier

Hi Vlado, excellent tones here, I love this grey/orange contrats, very nice with the stars as a bonus... It would be very nice to set the aperture at f11 or something in order to have a deeper DOF, nicely composed...

Zdravo, Vlado,

Astronomska slika, vendar ima toplino doma skupaj s zvezdami. Ali veš da je ta zvezda v bližini desnega kota, zvezda Severnica? Odlična slika, brez traga šuma.

Lep pozdrav, Aleks

Simply wonderful!! a really well done picture Vlado, I really like it!!

have a nice day,
Fabio.

hello Vlado,
very well captured and composed night shot. The details are very well visible, the light is great and I like the combination of the few colours. TFS and have anice WE!

Hi Vlado
Impressive shot and the stars look well captured. The house is a nice colour and exposure too as it adds some mystery to the scene. Looks like a clip from a movie. Nice overall exposure and good balance.
Well done.

Zdravo Valdo, Lep in zanimiv posnetek. Pri meni je presvetlo da bi kaj takega uspelo. Če se prav spomnim astronomije iz jadranja vidi se tudi severnica, skrajnje desno. vsaj tam nekje bi morala biti

Simple but effective shot here Vlado, it actually reminds me of a painting I did when I was a small kid, except I prefer your version :) The orange lights look great against the rest of the black tones.

So original picture! I like being there!!! Yes, this is a very calm place... Thanks! Bye-bye! :)
