This is a 72 shot panorama of the Milky Way rising over a lone gum tree on a farm halfway between Dowerin & Cunderdin, about 2 hours north east of Perth in Western Australia.

For the first time I had to change batteries on my tracker during this shoot, lucky I had spares in my backpack otherwise it would have been ruined :)
