Description

The Summer Milky Way core rising over the rugged Maine coastline on July 17, 2021 under the light of a first quarter Moon.  This is a 12 shot mosaic consisting of single untracked 15 second exposures shot with a Nikon D750 and Sigma Art 35mm f/1.4 lens.  Exposure settings were ISO 1600 and f/1.4.  The raw frames were developed with Rawtherapee followed by stitching with Microsoft ICE.  Post processing was performed with Photoshop and Lightroom.  I hope you enjoy the image!
