Description

I was fortunate to image the Milky Way from the amazingly dark skies on the Hawaiian islands of Kauai and the Big Island at the end of July and beginning of August.

This is the fourth of a series of images from Kauai where we stayed in Poipu on the southern tip of the island looking out over the Pacific Ocean. This is another shot taken from the volcanic rock shore along the ocean.

Imaged using a Nikon D750 (full spectrum modified) and Nikon 28-300 mm travel zoom at 28 mm and F/3.5. Exposure was 20 seconds at ISO-6400. Combined five subs using Sequator (auto brightness=ON, HDR=ON, LP reduction = ON).
