You must have a few shots taken from that place..?

Lovely

Thanks guys. I think this one takes me off the planet more than the others. I googled up some space art and found something similar with double star + geysers. Nature imitating art.

Mike, yes I did take a few shots mate. Could have done more in hindsight, but happy with what I got in 2 nights. I might post another down the track, but that's probably enough for now.

Love it! This one is the best of the series that we saw in my opinion.

Thanks Alex. I was pretty lucky to get the shot. It's a frame from a timelapse and I didn't even realize there was an active streamer to the left when I set it up. I put it there after my dolly failed due to ice buildup from an overactive geyser
