Just Me and the Milky Way

Hi all,

I took advantage of the favourable weather forecast and set the alarm for 3:30 this morning, and then drove 45 minutes south west of Brisbane to have a play with my Tokina 11-16mm lens. Here are a couple of single 30 sec exposures shot at f/2.8 and 3200 iso. The first one was shortly before the start of astronomical twighlight, and the second is just after. The last image shows Scorpius setting over the Main Range and Cunningham's Gap.

Thanks for looking.

Cheers,
Stephen
