The summer Milky Way over the swathed canola field next to my rural house, on Sept 4, 2013. The Summer Triangle stars are at upper centre. A very clear night but with dust reflecting urban sky glow and airglow adding green bands to the sky. A stack of 5 x 5 minute exposures with the 14mm lens at f/2.8 and Canon 5D MkII at ISO 1600. The ground is from one exposure.
The summer Milky Way over the campsite at Writing-on-Stone Provincial Park, Alberta, taken from the Visitor Centre RV parking area, Sept 1, 2013. This was a perfect night, warm, no wond, and no bugs. This is one frame of a 200 frame azimuth pan time-lapse with the Radian. This is 30 seconds with the 24mm lens at f/2.8 and Canon 5D MkII at ISO 3200. Yellow glows are urban light pollution from towns in Montana. Car headlights light up the sandstone formations in the Milk River Valley.
