Milky Way, trees and mountains

[alan72]

More Milky Way from Azerbaijan.

A return trip to a now favourite location with this lonely tree and some fun with light painting.

And a trip to the mountains. Luckily after a day of solid clouds the sky cleared to a fabulous night!!

The red rising moon just breaking the horizon. Only a few minutes after this the milky way really faded from the moonlight.

Looking south west into the edges of the Caucus mountains. Zero light pollution from the small villages out in the distance.

Very impressive. Tried a MW shot myself and thought I better check to see some in this forum before posting. Better give it a go.
