A collection of night sky photos of Milky Way and Zodiacal Light in the dark sky of La Palma, Canary Islands. La palma is known as the European stargazing paradise, with many places with natural dark sky and magnificent landscapes. It's also home for several professional telescopes in Roque de los Muchachos Observatory. Watch a time-lapse collection from my trip to La Palma here.
