The Milky Way viewed from a cape on Rebun Island, Hokkaido

What's captured in the photo is the Milky Way stretching across the entire sky! It was reportedly taken in September 2024, a few days after the new moon. During the period close to the new moon, there is less moonlight, making the stars appear clearer, resulting in a beautiful shot that contrasts with the cape.
