Milky Way


Here is an image taken on Saturday of the Cygnus area of the Milky Way at azimuth (straight up) about 11.00pm. This is a wide field image taken with my Canon EOS350D mounted on a tripod and just it's usual 18 - 55mm lens fitted. ISO1600, 12 x 30 second exposures stacked in Deepspace stacker.

Didn't quite get the focus spot-on because of the wide field, but a nice image! Also a bit of light pollution as lights kept going on while I was taking the photos!
