Description

On the evening of the ferry crossing from the North Island to the South Island of New Zealand, we had the opportunity to take this widefiled photo despite the moon being quite bright and close to the Milky Way. I hope you like it, it was a spontaneous shot while we were preparing our dinner next to the tent.
I always find it difficult to edit very star-rich regions beautifully. Ultimately, the focus should be on the incredible amount of stars.
