The Pinnacles - Exploring the Paths of the Dead
The Pinnacles on the North Island of New Zealand are just amazing and fascinate with remarkable rock formations. One might also know this place from "Lord of the Rings" as the "Paths to the Dead". I think this is a perfect title for this stunning panorama. The image is showing a person (/me) with a lamp exploring this surreal place during the night with the Milky Way expanding over the scenery.
