Equipment Details:

Canon T8i camera, 14mm lens, Star Tracker

Post-processing Details:

After I stacked the photos in Deep Sky Stacker, I took the autosave.tif into Photoshop for post processing to bring out the Milky Way and the Summer Triangle.

Image Details:

Went out to a dark sky site south of Salina, Kansas to the Maxwell Wildlife Refuge to take this photo of the Milky Way and the Summer Triangle. Much darker skies there than from my backyard as I was able to see the Milky Way overhead. Took 82 light frames, 19 darks at 3 minutes each with my Canon t8i camera, ISO of 1000 on my portable sky tracker. Post processing done in Photoshop to bring out the galaxy and stars better.
