Milky Way Over Hillsdale Lake

I'm just learning astrophotography stuff (that's my disclaimer) :) This lake is close to the city, so there's plenty of light pollution, as you can see from the clouds exiting on the left. I have other versions without the clouds but just thought they added some interest. This camera has had the internal IR filter removed to allow red light from emission nebula to come through to the sensor. If you look closely, you can see stars reflected in the lake. In person this was vivid and I wish I could have captured it. Beautiful night.
