A 360° panorama of the Milky Way and night sky taken at the Cameron Bay picnic area on Upper Waterton Lake in Waterton Lakes National Park, Alberta, Canada. I shot this Sept 21, 2014 on a very clear night with a faint aurora appearing to the north (behind the trees). Streetlights illuminate the scene from behind the trees to the north. Taurus, Orion and the Pleiades are rising at left (east). At right of lower centre (south) is the faint glow of Gegenschein amid the Zodiacal Band across the dim area of the autumn sky. North is at top. The Andromeda Galaxy, M31, is at centre, at the zenith. This is a stitch of 8 segments, each shot with the 15mm full-frame fisheye lens, for 1 minute at f/2.8 and with the Canon 6D at ISO 5000. I used PTGui to stitch the segments, with this version being a spherical fish-eye projection.
