Milky Way over the Sciliar. Show of Titans

Milky Way over the Sciliar (Dolomites), Schlerngruppe.
Canon 6D mark I unmodded, Tamron 15-30 G1 @ 15mm, f/5.6, iso 3200.

It was a huge emotion to shoot the Milky Way in this amazing place.
The Sciliar is a group of mountains of the Dolomites; the taller peak in the picture reaches 2457 meters.
The image was shoot at 1800 meters during a night with humidity near 100% (never seen something like this, the bags were all wet like if it was raining).

This image is what I saved from a timelapse who failed: the huge lens in vertical position little by little pulled down the camera from the bar, so slowly I could not realize that but fast enough to ruin the timelapse. I solved later the problem using a L-Bar on the camera, who holds the body of the camera on the side too.

Luckly many shots were good to be stacked in this image, which give me back the positive feelings of that night, so I can't complain of that problem anymore.
It shows the majestic peaks and moreover the power of the Milky Way.

Thanks for watching.

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.
