Milky way over the Eolian Islands (Italy)

From Pianicello on Alicudi to the south with the northern Sicilian coast line. Alicudi is one of the seven Eolian Islands that are north of Siciliy. Alicudi is the most reote one with only about 100 people living there. Ther are no streets and no street lights. Transporation is done with mules on steep paths. Pianicello is a hamlet with few house that can be reached by climbing 1000 steps to an altitude of 350-400m above sea level. The starlight is really impressing. Haven't seen that in Europe before.

Jupiter is the bright "star" in midst of the Milky Way. The images were taken at 10mm focal length with f/3.5. The image distortion in the edges is significant. I show the complete image (APS-C format) without cropping. The first picture shows the complete summer Milky Way that went through the zenith. The second image was taken towards the south with the Sicilian coast.

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
