Description

Three galaxies in one shot: Large and Small Magellanic Clouds and the Milky Way. It was a second night of my trip to Namibia and a windy morning when the Milky Way was setting in the west making a nice shaped arch with Magellanic Clouds appearing on the left. I managed to photograph this shot within one hour before the morning twilight in spite of the crazy wind which typical in this area of Namibia during winter.
