Description

I took a break from looking at and recording aurora for an evening to get a few images of the milky way. This was taken at around 2 am on a relatively calm evening.

Exposure is 180 seconds @ ISO 800 with a modified 60D Canon and a 10mm Rokinon lens mounted on an Ioptron skyguider pro.

If you look closely some of the nebulosity in Cygnus can be seen (at 10mm they are tiny blotches).

This is another experiment with processing in Pixinsight 1.8.
