That's a nice image. I am wondering how you managed to get the milky way so bright with 8 sec exposures. How many images did you stack?

they are three single shots stitched and no stacking.the sky was very very clear and milkyway star trail was visible to the naked eye.and i was almost 100km away from the nearest city

Very nicely done... Was that at f1.8 and highish ISO ?

Quite amazing for just 8 seconds. It must have been fantastic skies.

[neelam]

yes its at f1.8 and ISO1600.i think i pushed too far.later on i found out that it would have looked better at f2.2 or 2.8.

the skies were all clear thousands of stars were visible and they still are.waiting for the moon to get smaller so that i can go out again.
