A rocky field,
we couldn't get rid of the clouds, we travelled more than 150kms and finally found some not too good weather conditions but we where able to see the stars after a week of crappy weather, the Souther pole looks pretty high from -43 latitude.
Next to Laguna La Amarga, on a small town called Sierra Chata, there was this old abandoned rock stractor company, the owner was lawsuited by an injured employee, the company was shut after that, we asked the owner to let us in and check it around, there was some beautiful animals even if it looks like a ghost creepy place. I had no chance to image the sky because of the weather conditions for almost a week or so, this was the first semi clear night sky in more than a week, even if the sky was most of it clear, I couln´t get the chance to image the Milky Way in its all glory, laying behind the clouds, almost settling, the light was passing through the clouds. Anyway, since it was my first clear night, I builded this pano, because I also liked the rocky scenario, it looks like from another world. The Large Magellanic Cloud, Canopus from Carinae, The Small Magellanic Cloud next to Archernar, takes the show away, even if we can see a violet cast around the Crux and the amazing Airglow green cast in the sky, the rest of yellowish belongs to the sucky light pollution from far towns.
