Portal to the Heavens

Looking up at the Milky Way after midnight yesterday morning at the entrance to the Pine Flatwood Trail in the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge. While light pollution is very low there, it is not too far from the mainland, and thus that explains the bright effect on the horizon. I cleaned up the image by stacking twenty 25-second exposures, which were at an ISO of 10000, in Sequator. The structure in the center is an information kiosk and I lit it with a blue flashlight, thus giving it that look.
