Imagine capturing the Milky Way arching across the sky above gnarly ancient trees, or the Magellanic Clouds dancing in the heavens above a desolate desert landscape. This is the magic of Namibia, a country with some of the darkest skies on Earth and stunning natural scenery that makes it perfect for landscape astrophotography.

The Milky Way core will rise in the late evening, climbing directly overhead for perfect viewing conditions that will blow your mind. It’s also the perfect time of year to capture a Milky Way arch panorama, not to mention the wonders of the southern night sky like the Southern Cross, Carina Nebula and the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds.
