Description

My first attempt at Milky Way photography. For a short time each spring the Cygnus region of the milky way rises behind Dunnottar Castle on the NE coast of Scotland.
This happens at a very unfriendly (for me at least!) 3am - the wind was blowing and the wind chill below freezing. This is the result of 20 x 20sec frames stacked in Sequator and finished in Lightroom and Photoshop. I deliberately kept it a bit subtle and moody, pushed too far it started looking very unnatural.
Taken with a Panasonic GX8 micro 4/3 and 7 - 14 mm lens.
For a first try I was quite pleased.
