The 2024 Milky Way Photographer of the Year honors the marvels of our galaxy in their high-resolution splendor.

The 2024 Milky Way Photographer of the Year, hosted by Capture the Atlas, a prestigious travel and photography platform, showcases the splendor of our galaxy with a compilation of the year’s most breathtaking Milky Way images. This  edition signifies the 7th annual contest, presenting 25 awe-inspiring photographs taken by photographers from 19 distinct nationalities across 15 countries, which include the United States, Australia, New Zealand, Chile, Argentina, France, Switzerland, Spain, Italy, Bulgaria, Slovenia, Egypt, Oman, Yemen, and Jordan. Curated by Dan Zafra, the editor of Capture the Atlas, the selected images were sourced from over 5,000 submissions, underscoring the remarkable talent, commitment, and enthusiasm of photographers worldwide.

This competition is a tribute to astrophotography and acts as a source of motivation, inspiring photographers to discover new locales and convey their distinct viewpoints of the nocturnal sky. The season for viewing the Milky Way spans from February to October in the Northern Hemisphere and from January to November in the Southern Hemisphere, with prime visibility generally occurring between May and June, when the sight is at its best. To seize extraordinary celestial instances, photographers often venture to isolated, mountainous sites far from the brightness of urban areas, thus enabling clearer and more striking observations of the galaxy.
