Island Magic

[jsecordphoto]

Had one of the most amazing nights out shooting last week that I've ever had! This is a 15 image panorama taken at Hermit Island, Maine with the entire Milky Way arch ending to the north with Aurora Borealis. Facing north this is some light pollution, but thankfully it wasn't enough to wash out the aurora, although you can see some if along the horizon.

Each frame was ISO6400, f2.8, 15 seconds

Hummm. I'm sure there's a nit there somewhere. I'll let you know when I find it. In the meantime, need to find another towel to wipe off the drool.

I'll always find little things in an image that bother me, but that's what keeps me motivated! Thanks for the kind words, I really appreciate it!
