A 24-hour view of the sky. The process is interesting, since everything had to be calculated ahead of time:

I began the shooting the morning of December 30, 2010, taking photos  with my camera on a tripod facing east. The day portion of this shoot is  composed of a dozen shots covering the landscape from east to west as  well as the Sun’s course across the sky, from sunrise to sunset. I  recorded the Sun’s position exactly every 15 minutes using an intervalometer,  with an astrosolar filter adjusted to the camera lens. In one  of the shots, when the Sun was near its maximum altitude, I removed the filter in order to  capture a more dramatic shot that showed the Sun’s “glare.”
