Milky way in the West.

This picture was taken By Malcolm Cerfonteyn at the Cederberg Observatory, Sunday 26 June at 06:00 hrs.

The moon had just risen and was enough to light up the western horizon features and Sneeuberg (Snow Mountain), with a dusting of snow, but not too bright to overwhelm the Milky Way in this Dslr 30sec exposure.

(Malcolm is a part owner of the Cederbeg Observatory).
