There is a weird face in the rocks that I can't un-see!

I often wonder how far humanity can go, how far we can reach.
I'd love to be able to see our planet several hundred years from now, if we reached a utopia like state, if we will be on the Kardashev scale.
The title of this image is inspired by the final Noisia album (which is awesome)

Can you spot the Galactic Kiwi in the sky? New Zealand's national bird.

"Questions"

Standing under the night sky for long periods of time gets you thinking, thinking about existential questions. Like if there's life out there? How do we comprehend the incomprehensible vastness and scale of the universe? Then my own life and little world and whether I'm in control of it, and how to maintain that control / self-control? I never have the answers, only the thoughts.

This was shot on New Years Eve in the Canterbury High Country, New Zealand. Near Lake Ohau.

I shot the mountain at blue hour after the sun had set, this allowed me to get a cleaner image.

I then waited for darkness and tracked the Orion Constellation (also known as The Hunter) across the sky for an hour, when I stopped tracking it was aligned with the top of this mountain.

One image the night before while hoping the clouds would clear, and the next just after sunset at blue hour the following evening.

The large bright spot shining through the moisture in the air is Jupiter, the orange star is Antares in the Scorpius region.

You can't get eventful sunsets with clear skies.

I took this image during some wild weather, my friend and I walked up this hill while the wind was intensely blowing, on unpacking my camera the hail started which soon turned to rain, just as the sun was setting it cleared and I managed to snap a few images in the strong wind.

I haven’t put this much work into a shot before!

A 180-degree panorama from Peak Hill, New Zealand.

I believe this could be the first Astro taken from up here.

The Carina Nebula can be seen at the top of the sky, Large Magellanic Cloud to the right, and some awesome airglow from atomic oxygen excitation near the horizon.

I had a crazy idea, hike up Peak Hill with most of my photography equipment for panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. I was 10 minutes into the extremely steep hike when I realised my 26.5kg bag was too heavy, but I had to keep going, I had to complete my plan. It was a slow grind over 2.5 hours with quite a few stops, the start of the track just goes straight up, with marble-like rocks on hard clay, making the track very slippery (coming down was a lot worse and I took a couple of spills but was fine)

I finally made it to the top, only to have the wind pick right up, there needs to be virtually zero wind when shooting long exposures, tracked panoramas are no exception.

This shot was my third attempt, I started the image sequence and the wind suddenly dropped! It stayed that way for 40 minutes, just as I completed the last frame of the panorama the wind hit hard, I was so lucky to be able to pull it off.

Then it was time to leave, the sky was getting brighter and I began my descent.

This one-shot took 4 hours of driving, 5 hours hiking, 7 hours standing on the hill, and 8 hours putting it all together, painfully stitching and blending the shots.

38 shots stitched – Ended with around 650 megapixels of resolution

The Great Nebula in Carina.

(Eta Carinae Nebula / NGC 3372)

One of the largest diffuse nebulae, more known in the Southern Hemisphere and perfect to shoot under New Zealand skies! These are clouds of gas and dust in outer space. Difficult to see with the naked eye.

It was an adventure getting to this location but well worth the views, 25 km of 4x4'ing, crossing multiple rivers, moving rocks, wet carpet, but totally dark skies.

I shot the nebula on New Years Eve, then returned to the same location one week later and snapped some shots of the jagged mountains that reach to the sky. I love the perspective and scale when blending terrestrial images with tracked astro shots.

Some tech info:

I tracked this part of the sky over 24 minutes taking 16 shots (90s each) on the Fornax Lightrack II tracking mount with the Canon 6D, H.Alpha modified by Spencer's Camera.

90s / f2.8 / ISO800, 105mm Sigma Art.
