from Sirius to Eta Carina, with LMC

after dusk at the beginning of May, this part of the Milkyway is up in Namibia - and allows for a nice framing with a 16mm lens and Eos77d.
At center is the huge Gum nebula and Vela SNR complex, bottom from right to left Sirius, Canopus and the LMC. Top left Eta Carina and running Chicken nebulae inmidst the denser starfield of our galaxy.

This is a composit picture, basically with Canon 16-35 f/4 and 57x2 min Eos77d at ISO1600.
Blended in partly are older pictures - of the Gum nebula with 135mm, LMC with 85mm, Eta Carina and running Chicken with 200mm.
The interesting part was to match these pictures to the vastly distorted 16mm frame. Learnt some new stuff...

The “AstroBin Image of the Day and Top Picks”, or IOTD/TP, is a long-running system to promote beautiful, interesting, peculiar, or otherwise amazing astrophotographs, with a focus on technical excellence. Learn more.

Submitted The date and time when you submitted this image for IOTD/TP consideration.	...
Views by Submitters (available since September 19th, 2023) Every image is assigned to 50% of available Submitters. In the event that at least 80% of them don't view the image before its time in the IOTD/TP process expires, it's assigned to the other 50% of Submitters and the process begins anew.
Promotions by Submitters When 3 distinct Submitters promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for Top Pick status. This requirement, in addition to anonymization of images and distribution to only a subset of them, prevents biases and ensures that the best images are selected.
Promotions by Reviewers When 3 distinct Reviewers promote the image, it moves on to the next stage of the process: evaluation for IOTD status.
Early dismissal Staff members have a lot of images to inspect on a daily basis, and they can dismiss images if they believe they don't meet the requirements for IOTD/TP selection. If an image is dismissed 5 times, it's removed from the process. This streamlines the process and ensures that any bias present in promotions could be overruled by other staff members.
