Panoramic Milky Way
This is something I've wanted to do for awhile: a panoramic view of the Milky Way. Each part of the composite contains two fisheye views of the sky, the left centred on the Perseus Arm and the right centred on the Cygnus Arm. The uneven seam is because of the differences in the light pollution and sky fog from within the city.
The left edge is the north-east horizon and the right edge is the south-west horizon. The Summer Triangle is at the zenith.
Each part of the composite is itself a composite of sixteen 25 second exposures stacked with DeepSkyStacker and then converted to 8-bit JPEGs using Photoshop CS2's HDR Conversion (local adaption).
