Báo Lao Động•16/06/2024
Aurora and the Milky Way are the big targets of many photographers who love to take pictures of the night sky. Right in Vietnam, photographers can hunt for beautiful pictures of the Milky Way.
The hobby of taking photos of the night sky started when Mr. Bui Xuan Viet accidentally discovered that the photos of the Milky Way in the night sky were not fictional products, but real photos.

Gradually, as he got deeper into this hobby, he wanted to take more and more photos of other types of night landscapes, especially auroras.

That moment is definitely unforgettable for each of us,” Viet revealed. Photo: NVCC The magical night sky in the eyes of photographer Bui Xuan Viet.
