Mooned

This was my outing on the eve of my birthday and I wanted to capture the Milky Way in the Badlands at this location, which is one of my favorites. As I stood taking photos, the stars virtually disintegrated in the bright light of the rising Moon. At least the Moon provided some nice lighting on the foreground, but the fabulous details in the dust trails and star patterns in the Milky Way are left to the imagination.
