Galactic Dust
We had another good astronomy session at Wivenhoe Hill west of Brisbane last night. I spent most of the time doing visual observing with my brother-in-law's 14" Dobsonian telescope, but I also had time for a couple of Milky Way panoramas.
This one is a panorama of the central section of the Milky Way galaxy, taken with a 35mm lens and the Star Adventurer Mini tracking mount. Each panel consisted of 5 x 120 second exposures at f/3.5 and 1600 iso, stacked using DeepSkyStacker. Panorama stitching was done using Microsoft ICE.
