Lake Tekapo Stargazing

Under one of the darkest skies on Earth, Lake Tekapo reveals a quieter kind of spectacle. The Milky Way arcs above the lake while Mt John Observatory sits silhouetted against the night, a steady presence beneath the stars.

Inspired by still, cold evenings and the humbling experience of looking skyward in Tekapo’s International Dark Sky Reserve, this piece celebrates space, silence, and the vastness beyond—where science and wilderness meet after dark.

Printed on 310gsm fine art paper and printed by the artist in Wānaka, this archival-quality print preserves depth, detail, and atmosphere, bringing a sense of calm and wonder into any space.
