Egyptian astrophotographer, Wael Omar, has captured a rare lunar analemma – a complex figure-eight pattern traced by a celestial body in the sky over time.
This extraordinary achievement was captured during a month-long project, tracking the lunar cycle over the Pyramids in Egypt. The otherworldly shot was taken with a Canon EOS Rebel SL2 / Canon EOS 200D DSLR and a Canon EF-S 18-55mm lens, another example of what can be captured with one of the best entry-level cameras and kit lenses. Accurate planning and research were needed in order to plot the exact path of the moon, plus sleepless nights waiting for the right time to capture the ideal image.
