Eye of the sky || Wakatobi || Indonesia

            Taken on a recent diving trip to Wakatobi Dive Resort in Sulawesi Indonesia.
After spending >4 hours a day underwater, there was one clear night where I could do some astro. The last shots were when the galactic core was directly overhead so perfect for a 8mm 180 degree shot to look like an eye from a fisheye lens :-).

Still a lot of light from the resort itself but very dark skies besides that.
Taken from the pier from the resort with lights on either end giving some context on opposite sides on the horizon.
