Milky Way & Hidden Bay, Lastovo Island, Croatia
A spectacularly clear night after a morning rainstorm. Lastovo, one of the remotest inhabitated islands in Croatia with exceptionally dark skies, but this night was very special. Milky Way and stars can be seen almost right to the horizon edge - the light domes on the left are from Dubrovnik (100 km away) and Montenegro coast. The one on the right is from Italy, probably Brindisi, more than 200 km away. It's not Bari (180 km), it's lights are brighter and off the right edge, I have it on other photos. There are some scattered street lights in Hidden Bay (that's a real name!) and you can see a light from the lighthouse that is featured in my previous photo. Green on the horizon is real - skyglow.
Nikon Z6, Nikkor S 20 mm, ISO 1600, 25x20s.
