Share your night sky photos
Have your Sunshine Coast photograph featured in The Night Sky exhibition
Have you captured a stunning photo of the night sky from your backyard or favourite spot on the Sunshine Coast?
As part of The Night Sky: Our shared darkness exhibition, we're inviting local residents to submit their photographs for a chance to be featured in a digital display.
Whether you're an experienced astrophotographer or simply enjoy taking photos of the stars, we'd love to see your view of the night sky. From the Milky Way and star-filled skies to moonlit landscapes, selected images will help showcase the beauty and diversity of the Sunshine Coast's night skies.

- High-resolution landscape images
- Minimum size: 1920 x 1080 pixels
