I don't think it's worth posting to be honest as it was a test, and had a lot of distortion; the resulting Photoshop correction is still heavily-distorted. It's also got a lighthouse in it. Also, I don't like photographing landscapes with human elements or artifacts in them.

It was first quarter Moon so it was a bit hard to gauge the darkness of the sky, although, I would think that when there's no Moon around that the skies would be reasonable, but, not anything special. There's also really bad glow from Sydney which is just 40-odd km away.

I emailed it to a friend of mine who then posted it on Facebook.

I used to run up Mount Taylor here in Canberra every second day and after a while I got quite fit. I haven't done any training in almost a year since I had tendinitis and have put on weight since then. As a result, the climb up the track was moderately difficult. I would imagine anyone who is in any decent fitness would find it a doddle. I was also carrying quite a lot of gear, had thongs on and a heavy jacket which added to the effort! I need to get fit again!
