La Palma, Canary Islands, is the dream island of every stargazer and a paradise for astrophotography.
I went to this fantastic island during my Holidays, packed two of my cameras and the Omegon LX4 Startracker into my backpack to image the night sky. I went to multiple places, but the most incredible viewpoint for seeing the Milkyway is definetely high up on the mountain, close to the Roque de Los Mochachos at about 2400 m above sealevel.
2400 m, New Moon, crystal clear skies, perfect seeing ...now if that doesnt sound like a paradise for astrophotography, I dont know what possibly could.
If you want to get to know the island a bit better and learn how I took my astro images, check out the video :)
