Description

This is my first picture of the night sky. I had a lot of help lurking r/astrophotography the past few weeks while getting familiar with my camera. Its been fun and even more so getting out for my first time. Drove up to the St. Croix river and spent some time under the stars.

Took 3 sets of pictures to experiment with iso's and exposure times. I shot this one with:

-iso 1000

-20 sec exposure

-f3.5

-40 light, 20 dark, 20 bias

-stacked with DSS

I really enjoy how this turned out. Messed around with Star Tools quite a bit and made a few different images to see how it all came together. Turns out i liked the least modified one to the rest. I was really over doing it the first few times.. I like the end result though, thanks for all the help!
