Description: Lounging on the beach under a starry sky is something incredibly relaxing. During the day, one of the most crowded yet equally beautiful beaches on Korčula ( Pupnatska Luka ) transforms at night into a true paradise sprinkled with stars.
The peaceful silence, with only the sounds of the sea waves and a stunning view of the dark sky, is something you must experience at least once on your vacation when visiting Korčula island.
As you can see in the photograph, my vision was to create a big panorama that would capture every corner of this beautiful bay, and to top it off, I decided to create a self-portrait under the “galactic umbrella”. Also what is nice is Lastovo Island visible far behind, located just under the Milky Way Core.
