Milky Way core rising above the Irish Sea

This stacked image was taken right before the morning twilight on April 20, 2023 facing the southeastern sky above the Irish Sea. This is Class 4 Bortle magnitude sky with a significant light pollution from Dublin city and Wicklow town so the contrast isn't great but facing the sea where there's little artificial light allows for a better result.

 

Shot on Sony A6400 with Samyang 12mm F2.0 mounted on Leofoto Ranger LS-284C tripod.

Background sky: 15 x 10s F2.8 ISO6400.

Foreground: 30s F2.8 ISO800 with light painting.

Processed in Capture One 23 Express, Sequator and GIMP.
