Mesmerizing Star Trails: The Wave

By: The Outbound Collective + Save to a List


The Wave is a must do hike in the Utah-Arizona border area and has been the subject of countless photography projects. The unique sandstone formation serves as an incredible foreground for photographing the stunning desert stars. A trifecta of world-class video production companies -- Sunchaser Pictures, Bloodhoney, and BBC Earth -- have come together, using over 10,000 stills, to create the first full timelapse of the famous landmark, leaving viewers absolutely mesmerized.
