Dream of Southern Night
4.5 hour exposure of area near south celestial pole, using one of my beloved old Canon EF bodies and 50/1.4 at f2.8. Kodak BWC 400 CN.
Modest post-processing, to remove it slightly from a straight rendition of the night sky.
For the curious, the Southern Cross & Pointers and the Milky way in Carina, Crux & Centaurus are responsible for the bright band across the upper part of this image.
