Luminous tipis glow beneath the vast river of stars forming the Milky Way galaxy, creating a striking juxtaposition of ancestral dwellings against the cosmic backdrop at the National Geographic Photo Camp on the Crow Indian Reservation. This campground, where young Apsáalooke photographers slept in traditional shelters during their week of photographic training, offered students a profound connection to both their cultural heritage and the infinite universe above Montana's dark skies.
