Brad Goldpaint trekked 1,300 miles along the Pacific Crest Trail in the United States to take these stunning snaps of the night sky. The trail, which runs from the Mexico-California border, takes in Washington and Oregon until it reaches the Canadian border.
The adventurous photographer perched on a ledge with a 1,000ft sheer drop, battled through a desert and cllimbed mountains. He left the big cities behind to reveal the beauty of the stars, the Moon and the planets as they cast their light over natural landscapes.
Along the way he fought off mice who tried to take his food.
