Finalist – astrophotography: Celestial Iris After the Fires
‘On New Year’s Eve 2019, a huge fire devastated the tiny town of Mallacoota and the surrounding forests. This photograph was taken looking vertically up through the burnt coastal melaleuca. Amongst all the devastation, the Milky Way, so clear in our dark skies, seemed to symbolise the hope of renewal and regrowth.’ Bidwell country, #Mallacoota, #Victoria.
