Mars and the Milky Way over the tipis at Two Trees area in Grasslands National Park, Saskatchewan on August 6, 2018. Some light cloud added the haze and glows to the planets and stars. Illumination is by starlight. No light painting was employed here. This is a stack of 8 exposures for the ground, mean combined to smooth noise, and a single untracked exposure for the sky, all 30 seconds at f/2.8 with the Sigma 20mm lens, and Nikon D750 at ISO 6400 with LENR on.
Mars (at left) and the Milky Way (at right) over a single tipi (with another under construction at back) at the Two Trees site at Grasslands National Park, Saskatchewan, August 6, 2018. I placed a low-level warm LED light inside the tipi for the illumination. This is a stack of 6 exposures, mean combined to smooth noise, for the ground, and one untracked exposure for the sky, all 30 seconds at f/2.2 with the 20mm Sigma lens and Nikon D750 at ISO 3200.
The view looking south at Herbert Lake, Banff National Park, Alberta, with the Milky Way over Mount Temple and the peaks of the Continental Divide. Mars (left in clouds) and Jupiter (right) flank the Milky Way, while Saturn sits within the Milky Way. A couple of satellites and possibly a meteor (it could be a flaring satellite) punctuate the sky as well. The sky is blue with the last vestiges of twilight and from moonlight from the setting waxing Moon off frame at right. This is a four exposures for the ground mean combined to smooth noise, and one exposure for the sky and reflections, all 30 seconds with the Laowa 15mm lens at f/2 and Sony a7III at ISO 3200.
