Southern Hemisphere highlights

Hi all,

for the benefit of all our Northern Hemisphere friends and aussie newbies getting into astronomy here is a photo I took of a relatively dark sky facing south from the out skirts of Wagga Wagga.

I've labelled some of the highlights not all, the ones I've pointed out can be seen with the naked eye. There are many more hidden gems and jewels that can easily be observed with binoculars or a small telescope.

Any feedback and comments welcome, thanks for looking
