Description

The image depicts two different clouds coexisting, the "celestial and the terrestrial". The "cloud" sweeping from top left to bottom right is the Milky Way, with its central part in the extreme corner, going through Scutum and Aquila, along with other constellations. In the other hand, in the bottom left corner, a "normal cloud from Earth" was passing by, and it appears to be orange because of (unfortunately) Light Pollution.

Just a quick frame from a time lapse sequence shot in the last Saturday, shot from a fixed tripod.

Taken from Rural Skies (Bortle 3-4; NELM ~6.3), from Cristina, MG, Brazil. Thanks for seeing.
