Description

This is my first attempt at Milky Way photography. It was taken on May 28, 2016 with very clear skies at the RTMC Expo in Big Bear, California. Mars, which was nearing closest approach, is visible at far right. Other info: this was a 30" exposure at ISO 6400.

The contrast and colors in this image have been boosted quite a bit as an aesthetic choice. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, since I'm very new to DSLR photography and photo editing.
