[John K]

Although it was too windy to do prime focus work, took some piggyback shots of the glorious Southern Milky Way.

Location was Terrick Terrick National Park 220kms NNW of Melbourne. A fire in the area the day before shows up as some light coloured haze on the horizon.

All shots taken with a Canon 400D, Sigma 17-70mm DCMacro lens and up to 5 minutes exposure.

The compression for Web does not do the images real justice, really happy with the lens especially when steped up to a high f ratio.

John.
