Image Details:

Early morning star gazing just outside of Kenhardt on the way to Putsonderwater. This region contains very little vegetation, primarily very low shrubs and yellow grass among a rocky desert kind of landscape. With minimal to no human light source, the stars are magnificent. In the icy morning air, before the sun rises and way before the farm traffic starts, this image was captured. Displaying myself and my pet companion, traveling with me for 8 years now.
