I wanted to give a "more realistic" view of what I shot this night. My other shots of the Milky Way I enjoy, but I wanted to share what it looks like before I mess with it; I also really liked the clouds that moved through. and figured why not show just a single exposure.

So...
1) As you can see the ground looks blurred. This was a tracked 15 minute exposure of the Milky Way. I used an Ioptron Skyguider Pro. This allows me to take extremely long exposures of the sky with zero blurring. But the Earth continues to move, so the ground is blurry; I normally put a different exposure of the ground without the tracker to correct the blurring.
2) This is NOT what you can see with the naked eye. I could see the Milky Way here, in fact it was pretty bright this evening. But it wasn't anywhere close to this. Go out and take a 15 minute exposure of anything and you will probably get a Blown out white image, so you can image how dark the Milky Way really is. You also need extremely dark skies. The lights you see on the horizon I didn't even notice as I was taking this photo, It was probably the farm houses a couple miles away.
3) This is a single exposure. normally I do multiple exposures and blend them together. This reduced noise and increases contrast. This trip I was able to take extremely long exposures at very low ISOs so I didn't need to stack the images.
4) This is more or less what it looks like out of camera. I did a lens correction just to fix the distortion and dropped down the blacks because shooting in RAW makes everything looks washed out. but otherwise out of camera.

"I've stayed here twice. The rooms were very tidy and clean and the beds super soft. Stay at this Super 8 by Wyndham instead of the Super 8 by Wyndham in the neighboring town of Richfield! The rooms look more or less identical but the beds here are noticably softer. "
