Milky Way from Kos

[Nephalem]

I went to Kos for my holiday and on my list of things to do was to shoot the Milky Way from a totally dark sky.  I went to the darkest part of the island and took some amazing RAW data, I couldn't have been happier.  Also as this was the first time I shot the Milky Way I was very pleased with the results.  I wish we had dark skys like this in the UK without having to drive hours to find a dark sky.

Shot with  Nikon D700, 24mm F2.8, 25s, ISO 3200

This is amazing! I have only started to get into Astro photography and right now I'm using my phone. Great image

It's a great Image! I love the rich contrast in brightness and colours, it really adds to the depth of the view.

Thanks.

Beautiful picture. Was it a single exposure ?

[Nephalem]

Yes single exposure. I did take loads of the same so I might try stacking them.
