Panorámica de la Vía Láctea sobre la Laguna del Salobral. Campiña Cordobesa, Andalucía, España.
En los calurosos días de verano en el Valle del Guadalquivir, apetece salir de noche a disfrutar de la Naturaleza total, de la Tierra y el cielo.
Hecha desde el mirador de una laguna que sólo lleva agua cuando las lluvias son abundantes, como este año, pero es bien aprovechada por multitud de especies de aves y otros animales y plantas.
Overview of the Milky Way on the Laguna del Salobral. Countryside Córdoba, Andalusia, Spain.
On hot summer days in the Guadalquivir Valley, fancy a night out to enjoy the full nature of the Earth and sky.
Made from the viewpoint of a lagoon that carries water only when rainfall is abundant, like this year, but it is well used by many species of birds and other animals and plants.

It took me a long time to process this image, trying to get every last part of extended nebulocity out. I Used some information from the Astrophysical Journal about the Low surface Brightness of Ha Observations of Local Intergalactic Hydrogen Clouds of these objects you can see here http://iopscience.iop.org/1538-4357/450 ... .html#rf41
