Photo of the Week

 This week for Photo of the Week, we would like to feature a serene shot of the Milky Way and the Magellanic Clouds. Taken in Egmont National Park in New Zealand by the talented photographer Cortland McCullum, the peak of Mt. Taranaki can be seen in the foreground, silhouetted by the beautiful star-filled sky and the majestic Milky Way. On this night, it was a little chilly, worthy of a few layers of clothing and a warm blanket. But as the Milky Way rose above the horizon, all that cool air disappeared as the starry sky filled the night, beautiful in all of its glory.
