The night sky is incredible over the Kimberley region of Western Australia. Sparsely populated and home to many Aboriginal groups, the area has been open to tourism only in the past few decades. I was able to photograph the southern sky not visible from the northern hemisphere, much more of the Milky Way and the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds.

Love the Milky Way images and the background.
Thanks Mike! Western Australia is a really dark sky place.
