Mojave Milky Way 2019 (2)

A 2 row 8 shot panorama of the Milky Way on the horizon at the Mojave National Preserve.

 

I've waited 9 months to test out a 15mm f/1.7 prime lens. So far the year has been cloudy, windy, and hazy all year. The first week of June would be the last opportunity for the horizon milky way shot for 2019 before the heat and sunset would limit the horizon shot.

 

Like most days this year, It was cloudy during the sunset which was a good thing for the sunset landscape shots. But at this location 5300ft elevation, the sky cleared just as twilight was ending, and the milky way appeared on the horizon.

 

Here's the video of the sunset with milky way night photography: youtu.be/Un5zGmZ2U3o

 

Shot with Lumix G9 and 15mm f/1.7 lens. 3200 ISO, 13 seconds

 

Thanks for viewing,
