✨EARTH TO VENUS✨
On a full moon evening, I decided to photograph this very visible Yakka on the side of Hog Bay road. Its one of the tallest Yakka spikes I've seen on KI. I noticed, as I framed this Yakka against the stars, that Venus was in line with the spike, so I positioned my camera to shoot the tip of the spike and Venus together, illuminating the very tip. I enjoy creating more than just a picture, I like to leave a touch of magic 😊

The most beautiful shot of airglow I have ever photographed during astronomical twilight.

The soft colour bands visible in this photograph are caused by airglow, a natural atmospheric phenomenon. Green light is produced by oxygen molecules, red emissions originate from higher-altitude oxygen, and warm yellow-orange tones are linked to sodium atoms. These colours are revealed through long exposure photography in dark skies and are not digitally created or Al-generated.

Post editing just a touch of saturation to a RAW file to bring the colour out.
