Description

One from the archives! This is a 10 x 300-second stack of the summer Milky Way taken from the Roque de los Muchachos Observatory on the island of La Palma (Canary Islands). I used a budget 28mm Canon lens and unmodified Canon 5D MkII DSLR on a Skywatcher EQ6 Pro. It's a reprocess that certainly bought back some great memories!
