Floating in a Cosmic Dream
Wrapping up my final astro adventure of 2024 under the stunning skies of Harvey. Took a 1.5-hour drive south of Perth to scout around Harvey Dam, armed with a few planned shots in mind. Arrived just before twilight to set up, and by 10:30 PM, I was already heading back home—mission (mostly) accomplished.
The wind was relentless that night, and while the tall trees offered some shelter, the dream of capturing those perfect sky reflections on the water? Gone with the breeze. Not everything went to plan, but hey, that’s the beauty of nightscape photography—always keeping you on your toes!
