Milky Way, don't get too excited!

[Fay]

This is the best I can do. 6x480sec Canon 600D, Sigma 10-20 @ 15

It may not have the best signal to noise ratio but it shows the Milky Way in all it's glory.  I like it.

Was that one image or did you stitch a couple together ?

Nice image and it also has a tree in it. You should have entered that for the Astrophotographer of the Year competition.

That has come out well - I love it!

The H-alpha is very distinct - were you using a light pollution filter?

I can see Jupiter, Pleiades, California, Flaming Star, Heart, Soul, Andromeda Galaxy, North American, Pelican plus loads of other stuff!

Do you have a larger version?

[Fay]

Oh Mark, I am overcome!

you will have to put an arrow on all the objects, yes have a BIG one!

[JohnP]

Well I have to say Fay I think it's totally Crap..! probably your worst image ever...!!!! Can't believe you even had the 'balls' to post it on a Astrophotography Imaging Forum... You've really lowered the tone & achievements of the OAS by posting this one... Shame on you......



...... OK! - Only Joking (It must be Friday) - It's different & good - Like Mark says you can readily identify several DSO's & it's great to see them all in the context of the whole sky. I like it as well & would like to have a trawl through a larger version please... Shame the tree's are blurry though.. - you could of at least waited for the wind to stop.

this is full size, because it is vertical, does not take over the whole screen. stars did not knit very well on the left, as a bit of egg shapes going on, due to lens.

[MarkS]

Would you annotate it - so we can identify all the interesting bits.

Thanks!
