This is a 26 shot panorama of the Milky Way rising above Herron Point near Mandurah, about 45 minutes south of Perth in Western Australia. I always seem to get rather intense red/orange airglow here, coupled with the yellow light polluted areas near the horizon I think it makes for a nice complementary colour scheme, one of the reasons I like coming back here. The fact it's so close to the city helps too :)
