Standing with Venus, at Monkey Mia, Western Australia.
Such an incredible view, at an incredible part of the world under incredible dark skies.
Plenty of time and inspiration to think about things, when you’re staring up into such a sight.
Cool shot. Freaky framing. Everything is in line, even Rho dust lanes coming down to venus and your head. Next you need to get a plastic light saber from the reject shop and strike a real selfy.
interesting image,nicely done.Did you have a friend or family member standing next to camera-to do a grab of gear if a vehicle came along,I'd not be game to do this by myself,just in case a vehicle came along.
Good one, Mike-looks like a shot from a science fiction movie
Thanks Larry! I've heard that comment a few times

No, it was a very quiet road and I was in the middle of a long stretch, so I would've heard any cars coming a long time before they would've crushed me or the camera I would've had time to move.

Thanks Leon. As I said to Chris, it was a very quiet road and I would've had plenty of time to grab the gear if a car came. I didn't see a single car during the 20-30 minutes I was in the middle of the road.
