It's always a pleasure to stroll along the lakeside of Rolle, whether to grab some ice cream, take a swim, or simply enjoy the view. This winter, I had the excellent surprise of learning that the city council decided to turn off the lighting on the quays and the island, which helps reduce light pollution – a subject that's close to my heart. However, the core of the Milky Way was not visible. I needed to wait.

I took advantage of one of my nighttime walks at the end of June to capture the Milky Way over this island I love so much. It's quite special to be able to do astrophotography in the town where I grew up.
