Pleiades Stars Reflect in Nevada Desert Oasis Pool

by Deborah Pittman

Dark water fills a shallow basin carved by ancient waves along the Nevada shoreline, mirroring a cluster of seven bright stars. Dramatic clouds drift overhead, their dark forms breaking the starlight that illuminates the wet sand. The cool season air settles on the still surface, creating a perfect inverted image of the Pleiades below. Ripples gently disturb the reflection near the rocky edge, where the smooth stones meet the dark liquid. A faint glow from the horizon hints at distant light sources, against the deep indigo of the night sky. The water remains glassy in the center, showing the sharp points of the star cluster against the textured cloud cover above.
