This has to be one of my favourite pictures. The big bright moon was behind the observatory, creating the glow in the sky. The observatory was lit by streetlamps though, making it obsessively red i had to adjust saturation levels.
The night sky is crystal clear in SA. Galaxies are clearly visible, and the place is so deserted light pollution is minimal (unless the moon comes out) Apparently that's why there are 2 observatories in a village the population of 300.
Snapped this picture with a tokina 12-24mm, with the setup dangerously propped by stones (maybe bones) i picked up around me. The camera dropped once (no serious injuries though). The picture had better be good.
