A 360° panorama of the southern sky over the OzSky Star Party, April 2016, near Coonabrabran, NSW, Australia. Left of centre is the Large Magellanic Cloud, while the Milky Way from Scorpius (at left) to Orion (at right) arches overhead from east to south to west. At far left is the Gegenschein, while at far right is bright Jupiter in the north. Carina and Crux are at left in the Milky Way. The Dark Emu is rising in the east. The telescopes are supplied by the Three Rivers Foundation Australia. This is a stitch of 8 panels, each 2.5-minute exposures, at f/2.8 with the 14mm Rokinon lens in portrait mode, on the iOptron Sky Tracker, and with the Canon 5D MkII. Stitched with PTGui using equirectangular projection.
