Description:  While preparing for the partial lunar eclipse of June 26th 2010 I took this photograph at the Queen Street Jetty in South Perth.

The pinpoint spots in the sky are actually stars, which can be matched up to constellations around the centre of the Milky Way. Clouds were moving over very quickly during the 15 second exposure, as shown in the photograph. Rain wasn't far behind.
