I know the Milky Way core has been visible in the southern hemisphere for a bit of time now but the weather has been pretty crap recently as well as dealing with the moon phases too, finally I got out on Friday night and managed to capture the core rising over the Awarua Wetlands in Southland, New Zealand. I wanted to capture the cores/ stars reflecting off the water that was left over from the receding tide and absolutely love the result.
This is 3 images all taken at iso 1600, f1.8 and 10” exposures on a Sony a7 iii and Viltrox 16mm stitched into a panorama in Lightroom.
Nice one. Have you ever caught luminisence in the water along with it ever?

Very beautiful picture thanks for posting this. I am wondering because i live in a very light polluted area, can you actually see this with the naked eye?
