Kilcunda afternoon sky for Skywatch Friday

 


Kilcunda is becoming more popular for photographers. It is an ideal location to get full milkyway belt above that particular dune. 

However, this place caused me a lot of incidents - camera drowned in that very river, tripod getting taken into the sea, hand and leg lacerations etc. I am told that all haunted places either have a lot of moisture or underground water source.

    1. Yeah, the solar eclipse in Melbourne is only partial and I missed the time. Just needs to underexpose the photo by 4 stops or so.

  7. Por lo que se puede ver en la foto el lugar es precioso, pero parece un poco peligroso.

  11. I suppose the wind stops blowing at Kilcunda at times, but I've never experienced it. Are you aware the road used weave under the old timber railway trestle bridge, now a horse trail.
