This is a 56 shot panorama of the Milky Way above Nambung Desert, about 2 hours north of Perth in Western Australia.
This is about 15 minutes south of The Pinnacles and is a roughly 4 square km area of pure white sand dunes adjacent to the main coastal road, so only a short walk from the roadside to the dunes.
Prominent in this image are the Large & Small Magellanic Clouds just above the horizon and right of centre, just above the LMC is the pink Carina Nebula and to the left of that is the dark Coalsack Nebula with Crux to its immediate right. And of course that's me standing and admiring the entire scene :)
