This is a 23 shot panorama of the early season Milky Way rising above a dry Lake Norring, 2.5 hours south east of Perth in Western Australia. This lake is known for its numerous granite boulder outcrops, one of the largest is featured here. Though it's hard to tell the scale from this shot, it's about three times the height of an average person.

 

The 'redder' regions of this image were captured using a hydrogen alpha filter which isolates that particular wavelength of light, emitted by those nebulae.
