Description

I still remember that moment when the night starts and the core of the Milky Way shines from its almost overhead position. You literally begin to see this bright light on every object around you. While exploring the farm and looking for a nice composition for the shot I found this cactus 🌵 that was almost as vertical as our galaxy directed to the universe.
