This mid-February display on an island in the Maldives was so intense that the astrophotographer described it as a turquoise wonderland. In the sky, by contrast, are the more familiar glows of stars and nebulas. The white band rising from the artificially-illuminated green plants is created by billions of stars in the central disk of our Milky Way Galaxy. Also visible in the sky is the star cluster Omega Centauri, toward the left, and the famous Southern Cross asterism in the center. Red-glowing nebulas include the bright Carina Nebula, just right of center, and the expansive Gum Nebula on the upper right.

Gentle gurgling sound of water flowing in a small rocky brook.

A vertical astrophotography image taken on a dark night, dominated by a clear view of the starry sky. Thousands of individual stars are visible against the deep indigo-blue sky, including a faint, hazy band of the Milky Way stretching diagonally across the right side of the frame. In the foreground, a dark, silhouetted landscape forms a low horizon line across the bottom, appearing to be a low hill or coastline. Below this silhouette is a dark band, likely water or a shadowed foreground. A single, distinct, bright red light, of a navigation beacon, is located in the bottom right corner of the image, contrasting sharply with the dark foreground and the blue-starlit sky. The overall mood is peaceful and vast.
