这个岩石结构不仅是超现实的，而且是真实的。也许它不出名的原因是它比人们想象的要小：顶石只有几米高。即便如此，位于美国新墨西哥州的“翅膀之王”露头是一种被称为“胡毒巫术”的不寻常岩石结构的迷人例子。当一层坚硬的岩石覆盖在一层被侵蚀的较软的岩石上时，就会形成水坑。把这个胡毒巫术融入夜空照片的细节花了一年多的时间。除了在万里无云的天空后面等待一个风景如画的夜晚之外，前景还必须相对于背景的自然光线进行人工照明。经过长时间的规划和等待，最后一张照片拍摄于2016年5月。与横杆相似，背景天空的特征是我们的银河系在头顶伸展。

This rock structure is not only surreal -- it's real. Perhaps the reason it's not more famous is that it is smaller than one might guess: the capstone rock overhangs only a few meters. Even so, the King of Wings outcrop, located in New Mexico, USA, is a fascinating example of an unusual type of rock structure called a hoodoo. Hoodoos may form when a layer of hard rock overlays a layer of eroding softer rock. Figuring out the details of incorporating this hoodoo into a night-sky photoshoot took over a year. Besides waiting for a suitably picturesque night behind a sky with few clouds, the foreground had to be artificially lit just right relative to the natural glow of the background. After much planning and waiting, the final shot, featured here, was taken in May 2016. Mimicking the horizontal bar, the background sky features the band of our Milky Way Galaxy stretching overhead.
