Milky Way Over Airglow Bay

Thanks for having me guys! My first post

I was finally able to get out under some stars in the name of International Dark Sky Week.
We'd had pretty ordinary weather here lately so it was a no brainer to get out and play when saw the clear skies above. I went down to my good old faithful Goats Bluff to snap some Milky Way goodness. Also it's my first time capturing the central bulge this year since it swung back into view. Again we seem to be getting a good hit of green airglow which adds a nice a splash of colour to the star filled sky.

Welcome, James! Beautiful image.
Heaps of airglow! I think we got a little of that at IISAC but nothing like that.

I'm jealous of your beautiful surrounds!

Tassie is so gorgeous. Lovely shot. I have only seen airglow that strong once.
