Night Milky Way on the Lake

Milky Way on the Lake · **18 Likes**

This shot was taken from a single frame, during my first MW session on June 5th... Taken a bit earlier than my pano merge, we can see more part of the MW before it was hidden by the trees later that night... we can see more details in the MW.
Pentax K-1 + Samyang 24mm ƒ1.4

If this was mine, it would be made into a huge enlargement, and hanging on my wall!!

Spectacular capture, and the lighting is beautiful!

Stunning image I really missing seeing the night sky. I would have to drive a few hours at least to get anything close to sky as dark as that.
