Mt Buffalo National Park, Australia, 29/08/14

Spent the night back at one of my favorite locations to image from a couple of nights ago.  There was still a bit of snow around from heavy falls earlier in the year.
With the central bulge of the Milky Way directly overhead and a crescent Moon setting in the west, I thought it was a good time to do another all sky panorama before setting up for a few timelapse sequences.

A lot of people on another site have said I should have called this image "Dragons Eye" and I agree that that would be a great title for this, but "Infinity" reflects what I was feeling on this night, as I spent a large part of it just lying on my back and staring up into night sky. 

23 image panorama.
Canon 6D, 14mm, F/2.8, ISO 6400, 30 seconds.

Before I read your message, I was thinking, "Dragon Eye".  Either way, it's an awesome shot.

Reminds me of that temporal doorway on some remote planet back in Star Trek TOS.

I was "surprised" by this image only because my first thought was of "Smaug". This is uniquely beautiful.

That's absolutely incredible, beautiful. I like both titles, but I think "infinity" is better.(To be able to see that far into our galaxy.)
Very good photography!

the fact that the whole composition you made makes the sky rounded like earth makes this capture extremely beautiful and powerful too kudos
