How did we spend the last evening in Sumba? Certainly we preferred milky way shoots. And we shot at churches along East Sumba.

We started the evening in Ndata, where the land contur is hilly, similar to Tanggedu. We stayed for golden hours for sunset and started to shoot the milky way at blue hour.

At midnight we drove to Hamba Praing, East Sumba to capture milky way over St. Peter church.

Happy Christ’s Ascension Day!

An update on the camera:

So my Sigma ART 24-70 mm survived Walakiri with some further check needed, but my Sony A7, did not. I feel bitter sweet.
