The MIlky Way in Scorpius (right) and Sagittarius (centre) toward the centre of the Galaxy as seen from southwest Arizona, from the Four Bar Cottages near the Arizona Sky Village at Portal, Arizona. I shot this the morning of May 4, using the Canon 6D at ISO 1600 and a stack of 4 x 3 minute exposures with the 24mm lens at f/2.8.
The total eclipse of the Moon, April 15, 2014 local time just after sunset from Australia, seen from Shingle Splitter's Point overlooking Lake Macquarie on the Central Coast of New South Wales, Australia. It was fortunate that we saw this eclipse at all as the sky was very cloudy and at times it was actually raining on us. But about 6 pm the Moon appeared as totality was ending. The Moon appears below Spica and below right of Mars. The lake has a red glitter path from the eclipsed Moon. This is an 8-second exposure at f/2.8 with the 50mm lens on the Canon 60Da at ISO 800.
All of Scorpius, plus parts of Lupus and Ara regions of the southern Milky Way. This area was directly overhead when I took this at about 4:30 am local time on April 6, 2014 from near Coonabarabran, Australia. The head of Scorpius is at top his tail at bottom though you could turn this image any direction and it would be correct as seen in the sky at this latitude, depending on the time of night. But in portrait mode like this north is at top. Along the Milky Way are numerous nebulas, including the False Comet area, the Cat's Paw area, and the colourful nebulas around Antares at top. The dark Pipe Nebula is at left of frame. This is a stack of 4 x 6 minute exposures at f/2.8 with the Sigma 50mm lens on the filter-modiifed Canon 5D Mark II at ISO 800. An additional exposure with the Kenko Softon filter was layered in to add the star glows.
