The Milky Way, Mars and Saturn Over Manitoulin Island
Time-lapse video: vimeo.com/178111375
A southern view of the Milky Way, Mars and Saturn over Big Lake on Manitoulin Island, Ontario, Canada on July 26, 2016. Mars is located at far right and Saturn is above it to the left close to the Milky Way. Note the greenish / orange hue of airglow as well as skyglow above the horizon on the left. A few faint iridium flares are also visible.
Conditions were far from optimal (seeing and transparency were poor and it was humid). Nonetheless the view was spectacular.
Slight trailing in this image probably due to stretching the "500 rule" by five seconds.
