This is a 63 shot panorama of the Southern Hemisphere's summer Milky Way as it arches from the north (left side of the image) to the south above Harvey Dam, 1.5 hours south of Perth in Western Australia.
Prominent in this image is the pink, petal shaped Carina Nebula and the Crux constellation in the centre right, in the top right corner is the Large Magellanic Cloud and to its left is the large, deep red Gum Nebula. On the left side is the easily recognisable Orion Nebula and Barnard's Loop. There's also quite a bit of green and red airglow above the horizon. The partially submerged tree in the dam was light painted with a hand held spotlight.
