Historic Tokomaru Bay Wharf at Night

Photo by Robert Sanson

This photo is a 30 minute exposure of the night sky above the historic Tokomaru Bay wharf. The sky was very clear and the stars were out in their millions. The view was to the South, so I was able to capture the stars appearing to rotate around Sigma octantis, our "South Star". Two cars showed up while I was there, their lights lighting up the wharf and foreground, enhancing the scene
