Kati Thana-Lake Eyre National Park is not only home to the Australia's largest salt lake, but is also one of the darkest locations in Australia. Although high altitudes are ideal for stargazing, Kati Thanda-Lake Eyre National Park is an exception to the rule. As the park is 15 meters below sea level - and also Australia's lowest point - it makes it one of the darkest spots in the country. The large, flat salt lake will ensure unobstructed views and when the lake is full, the water reflects the stars from above, creating an absolutely spectacular sight. Experience the awe-inspiring stark wilderness of the park at night by setting up camp at Halligan Bay Point Campground and let the sky put on a show for you - make sure you keep a wish up your sleeve as you might even see a shooting star!
Any photo in my collection can be made as a stunning black & white print.
