Details:
We had another beautiful clear evening here last night to capture those glorious colours in the western sky that are produced by the volcanic aerosols high up the atmosphere from the Hunga-Tonga eruption…. These images were taken an hour after sunset at 6.00pm and you can see that arc of material clearly across and up the western sky…. The first image is looking directly west and you can see Canis Major with the bright star Sirius and the fainter constellation of Canis Minor with Procyon. The second image is panning around to the northern sky to capture the waxing crescent Moon that’s also in the halo of the volcanic dust with Canis Minor and the constellation Gemini…The constellations must look strange in my images to everyone who lives in the Northern Hemisphere, as we see them here in the Southern Hemisphere upside down ☺ ☺ ☺
Images were taken with a Canon 70D camera and Tamron 18-400mm set at 18mm on a camera tripod with ISO 200 and 6-second exposure (1st Image) and 3.2-second exposure (2nd images).
