Details:
The zodiacal light was very bright, it was easy to overexpose the image. The light was visible for quite a long time, after a while I wanted it to go away because it was interfering with attempts to get some good Milky Way shots. The zodiacal light was on my bucket list and I'm very pleased to have witnessed it however the wind was very strong and there was a lot of dust in the are which had a great effect on photographing the stars but that wind ended up blowing over my camera destroying the lens this image was shot with and breaking my battery grip.
