Naked Eye Summer Milkyway from last weekend was created by Keith g
Hi all, been busy for a while :arrow: but managed to take some timeout last weekend at new moon period to go shootin' widefield again
I intended this shot of the Summer Milkyway rising over the sea to be as natural looking as possible, and I think it's turned out that way I've tried to reproduce what I saw exactly with my own eyes under a dark sky.
Here it is: Canon 300D, 18mm lens at f4.0, ISO 800, 5 mins single shot.
Conditions were a bit hazy, not the best, but it was some sight !
Keith..

A tiny bit hazy, but you are blessed with very good skies Keith.

coruscations attending the whole length of the luminosity, giving to the phenomena the aspect of a wrathful messenger, and not that of a tranquil body pursuing a harmless course..comet of 1680
