Constellation Delphinus (the Dolphin)


Kodak Pro 400 PPF - 6 x 7 cm Pentax medium format camera w/165 mm lens

- The stars of the night sky have been divided and mapped since ancient times. With this mapping the imaginative shapes and legends of the constellations were created.

This photo of the constellation Delphinus shows, enlarged in their true color, the main "naked eye" stars that make up the shape of "The Dolphin". This is a natural photographic technique with the effect created during a single exposure of the film.

This is a very small constellation, but one with a distinctive shape and is easy to find in the night sky.
