Milky Way by Dark Arts Astrophotography Via Flickr: I was searching through some images I shot earlier this summer and came across a montage I hadn't yet published, so I figured it was high time to get it out. The Milky Way is always a beautiful sight from a dark location, partticuarly in summer from my latitude. Nothing beats shooting it with an ultra-wide lens. The sky was tracked over a period of 1 hour using my iOptron SkyTracker and subsequent images stacked. The foreground was from the same cameram, lens and session, but I physically moved the camera about 3 meters to get under the gazebo. When compositing the foreground and background, I attempted to blend them at the same angle for a more natural look, and I managed quite nicely. Shot at Camden Lake Provincial Wildlife Area near Moscow, Ontario, Canada. Tech Data Nikon D750 Vivitar 13mm f/2.8 iOptron SkyTracker Sky is 20 x 3 min exposures @ ISO 400 Foreground is 1 min exposure @ ISO 400.
