Description

My first shot at a big Milky Way mosaic.

Believe it or not, this is only half of the panorama (6 frames), and scaled down to about 28%! Picking up airglow and possibly early traces of a Kp4 aurora that hit an hour or so later.

See Version B for some hand annotations.

This is 6 panels, each a single 10 second shot at ISO 3200 with a Sigma Art 24mm f/1.4 lens. The processed frame is a whopping 15550 x 5775 after cropping!
