Description

This capture is of the Milky Way with Jupiter , Saturn and Mars along the ecliptic astride our home Galaxy. Also prominent is Antares, which of course means "rival of Mars" in Greek. I took 30 images of 15 seconds at f/ 5.6, ISO 1600 with my DSLR and wide angle Samyang 14mm lens as well as 30 darks and 30 bias frames. The photos were captured unguided.

These were processed in PixInsight before the background and star fields were combined in Photoshop.
