Milky Way in Sagitarius as seen from La Palma. The Sky above La Palma is protected by a Spanish law. Thanks to this law, the most polluting village, Barlovento, has new public lights and the influence on the astronomical observations is very low. Three different lamps are often used as public lights. The ones in use on La Palma are low-pressure sodium lamps which have very few spectral lines (https://www.ing.iac.es/PR/science/pollution.jpg). This picture was taken using amateur equipment.
