Orongo Crater.
Gorgeous sunset over the ocean behind mo’ai.

Vai Te Mihi performed a show of traditional Rapa Nui dance and music.

Worth the 3 AM wakeup call! A once in a lifetime opportunity to photograph the Milky Way above mo’ai on Easter Island. We had a bit of cloud cover, but overall I was very pleased with the resulting images.
