Beautiful as always, Greg! And is that the zodiacal light that I see angling upward and a little bit leftward from the brightest spot on the horizon?

Stunning again, Gregg! Your "Capturing the night" has an amazing eye to wonder my mind and my imagination. I dream travelling all around the universe just for watching such stunning sceneries!
Take care a lot my friend!

What is that blue thing on the right side of the tree? A nebula?
And like always: Awesome work!

I think its Andromeda galaxy. but lets wait for the answer from Greg.

Not a bad guess but it is the Small Magellanic Cloud (The Large Magellanic Cloud is just off to the right of frame) which is a dwarf satellite galaxy of our own Milky Way.

reason i said andromeda is that in low light pollution areas it actually looks much bigger than people think.

I'd put my bets on its being the Large Magellanic Cloud.

Ah, that makes more sense! Now I can match up your stars with the ones in my own night sky picture from Australia (taken at an entirely different sidereal time, when the two Magellanic clouds were roughly at the same altitude as each other, and higher than the celestial south pole). Thanks!

Really strong composition and crazy sharp.
Love the view you got to the milky way from there.
