Astro-tourism and stargazing in the clear skies of Western Australia 📷 | Landline | ABC Australia

There's nothing like standing under the Milky Way to put your problems into perspective, according to professional photographer Michael Goh.

"The humility of being under the stars, realising that whatever our problems are down here the universe doesn't care, is very rewarding and humbling," Mr Goh said.

The Western Australian photographer spends a fair bit of time stargazing in his specialty as an astro-photographer — and he's not alone.

The state is becoming a hub for stargazers, with nine towns in the mid-west region recently forming an astro-tourism trail.
