Just been to the incredibly beautiful South Pacific Island Paradise - Vanuatu. Clear skies so took some shots of the Southern Cross and Crux Area. Coconut trees in foreground.About 75 degrees F, tropical island with lush vegetation and coral reefs.
Nikon D70 50mm Nikkor F2.0 lens, ISO 1600 20 seconds 1/3rd moon, single shot, processed in Nikon Capture Editor software.
The Southern Cross is the 5 star pattern to the bottom left, it is the most well known star pattern in the Southern Hemisphere and is on many nations Flag's. You can work out due south from it.
