Acclaimed for his awe-inspiring images of the night sky, National Geographic photographer Babak Tafreshi here collects the best of those taken in the U.S. national parks--breathtaking interactions of stars and sky with stunning landscapes.

The most spectacular moments in America's national parks happen in the dark of night, when few are even looking--and now, in this glorious coffee table book, National Geographic photographer and Explorer in Residence Babak Tafreshi shares those awesome views with us.

Witness the dramatic silhouettes of Yosemite's El Capitan and Half Dome set against the full sweep of the Milky Way. The brilliant sparkle of fireflies in a midnight forest in the Great Smoky Mountains. Airglow, a rare atmospheric phenomenon, topping the Grand Tetons. A full moon rising in a dusky sunset above the snow-scattered slopes of Utah's Bryce Canyon. With patience and unique technical expertise, as well as an artist's eye for beauty, Tafreshi shares these one-of-a-kind moments in this breathtaking book.

This generous large-format volume contains some 200 brilliant images of more than 40 national parks and historic monuments. Eight expansive panoramics fold out three pages wide, for an even more expansive view. Special sections on global dark sky conservation and constellations seen in the book add a practical dimension.

Page after page brings wonder and delight in this one-of-a-kind collection of the nation's most beautiful natural scenery, set against the grandeur of the starry skies.
