Panorama / blended Sony A7iii Sky: 2 rows, 8 panels, ISO 1600, f3.5, 20s, Foreground: 1 row, 8 panels, ISO 1600, f3.5, 120s STORY: As I set up my camera on a tripod in the middle of the Australian outback, one can't help but feel a sense of awe at the sheer darkness of the skies above you.

Starry nights in Carnarvon leaving me starstruck! This stunning shot captured right from the motel doorstep without any star tracker. Can't believe the amount of detail it's revealed. In this image, you will find the Carina Nebula, Coal Sack Nebula and the Statue of Liberty Nebula. Sony A7iii Sigma 35mm f/1.4 @ f/2.8 12x 20s stacked

EXIF: Canon EOS 60D + Tamron 17-50mm 60 shots for the sky @ ISO1000, 13s each 4 shots for the forground @ ISO100, 4s each
