The end of “Milky Way Season”

[mountainjunkie]

From my vacation in Utah last week...first one was inside Arches NP, second up by Flaming Gorge at the cabins we stayed at. C&C always welcome.

Gorgeous. I love how clear the Milky Way is in these - skies must be really dark. Great shots!

Nice set.

Thanks! Yes the skies were very dark. I stacked the sky with 15-20 exposures on both of these as well.

Nice set. I really like the first.

I am curious as to the stacking because I do not see as it made anything stand out more than as a single exposure.

Stacking doesn’t necessarily make anything “stand out” rather it reduces noise that results from high ISO, long exposures.

Great set! Both images look really good.

Shoot at a lower ISO... I rarely use over 800. I know, that goes against the grain of current thought but it works for me.

Great set, Im lucky I see a star in my light polluted sky
