Equipment Details:

Canon 3Ti with 18-55 Canon kit lens @ 18mm, MSM star tracking, Manfrotto tripod, intervalometer timer.

Post-processing Details:

Color and contrast enhancements.

Image Details:

This single exposure is 6 minutes long...hence the blurred Juniper tree limbs in the foreground. The clouds were moving back in and dawn was approaching.
Some of the 20,000 nebulae are visible in the image. The brightest 4 are the Eagle Nebula (which contains the Pillars of Creation), the Omega Nebula, the Trifid Nebula, and the Lagoon Nebula. Plus on the right is the Rho Ophiuchi cloud complex with several nebulae including dark ones.
