Starry Night from the Teide National Park (Tenerife, Spain)

Caption

We can see Mount Teide, near the centre of the picture, and the moon within the arch of the Milky Way, behind a volcanic landscape with large rocks in the region of 'The San José Mines'. An uncontaminated sky allows us to enjoy the view of the Milky Way, our galaxy.
