Thank you very much Luis! What a great surprise that someone noticed my work and appreciated it. That's me in the photo looking through the telescope. I used a remote trigger and had the shutter set for 30 seconds. I just did my best to hold still and count to 30. I was very pleased with the results. Another thing I enjoyed after adding the location to Google Maps, is seeing all the other pictures others have added to this beautiful part of New Zealand.

@StephenAbraham Thanks Stephen. I didn't realize the clouds were there until I took the picture. Those are the kind of things I love about photography. Seeing things you never realized were there. And thank you for the kudos!
