Milky Way over Tatra Mountain Landscape

This photo was taken in a beautiful place in the Polish Tatra Mountains which is one of the most beautiful view point in which I have photographed so far. It is in Jurgów next to the polish-slovakia border. Photo was taken in May 2024 and depicts rising Milky Way galaxy with very well seen colorful Rho Ophiuhi on the right site and, majestic red Zeta Ophiuhi nebula, just above Rho Ophiuhi. That night, the conditions in the sky were really great and I managed to register three meteors ( on the left top site of the photo ) that add charm to this photo. I would say a magical place,
although I admit that I was a bit afraid of meeting a mountain bear. I photographed at that night with one of my friend, but I think that in a confrontation with the bear even the three of us would have had no chance. Fortunately, the story ended well, but to get to this place we had to walk a bit through the forest and the noise of the water meant that we would only see this mountain bear if it stood behind us.
