Under the milky way tonight

I don't think Astro pics are overly popular on Flickr & I blame NASA! After all they keep publishing those unbelievably stunning shots from their satellites and telescopes the size of football fields.

 

So here is a quickie from that great night doing an Astro photography workshop in 2017. I did capture the shooting star as well in this shot, though I cropped the photo so "moved" it so it would still be in the frame. I don't have the skills, or location, to take those great shots I've seen with the Milky arcing over a mountain range. This was over a black ocean on a crystal-clear night. One day I will go to the stars and take photos, though maybe not in this lifetime ;)

 

If you want some nice chill vibes to view the Milky Way then you can't beat youtu.be/Vc_Z0gUfqi4 Under The Milky Way Tonight by an old aussie band The Church.

 

Have a chill evening everyone :)
