There was some stunning red airglow on display this night, as the Southern cross and friends set into the horizon.

This composition overlooks Two Peoples Bay to the right of the image, with the dim lights of Albany in the background and the well known Little Beach just bellow the peak to the left. A foreground, that i thought was fitting under these Australian skies, showcases the Australian Grass tress.

Full spectrum Sony a7s, Sigma 50mm Art f1.4, Ioptron tracking mount.
Sky exposures: 30 sec ISO 1600 @f2
Foreground: 30 sec ISO 3200 @f1.4

The original was 500Mb and this is 162Kb so heavily reduced unfortunately.
