Heavy cloud cover started breaking up after dusk and I quite a few shots. Here's one. Ten second exposure.

Thanks. I'm totally clueless about astrophotography, but I'm feeling a little pull to learn something about it.

Wonderful shot. I'm surprised that you managed to catch so many stars and the Milky Way with "only" 10 seconds exposure! No astrotracer used?

No astrotracer, Bertrand. It was dark, and I boosted my exposure in Adobe Raw, bringing out more of the stars.

Thank you for your answer. I had no idea you could get such a beautiful result without the astrotracer, and with an aperture of F4. I will definitely try something like that for my next astro-shots!
