In this image, the milky way arches over Bell Rock, Courthouse Butte, Lee Mountain, Gibraltar, and Twin Buttes near Sedona. I had been wanting to make this night panorama for a few years, and finally spent a few hours in the dark. This is a blend of about 9 images for the starry sky, and about 9 exposures for the mountains taken about 45 minutes after sunset so some detail could be captured with less noise. The native file is about 27x54" without any enlargement. After a series of images to stitch into a long panorama was shot, the night was ended with this single exposure. The light on Courthouse Butte is due to the lights of the Village of Oak Creek Nikon D810, 24mm, f/2.8, ISO 6400, 20 sec.

Always amazed at how much light our vision misses, but the cameras manage to capture.
Have a neighbor with one of the sky tracking implements for his scope. Need to drag him out some night.

You are not a photographer...an artist clearly. Beauty.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.
