This is a 22 shot panorama of the Magellanic Clouds above Mt Trio in the Stirling Range National Park, four hours south of Perth in Western Australia. The pink above the horizon I believe is the faint glow of distant aurora that were quite active at the time...but I may be wrong, I've just never seen the sky that colour with normal airglow.
