Milky Way over Last Chance Ranch
Wanted to try out the loaner/demo 50mm f/1.2 lens that Canon so kindly sent to me
Turned out to be a beautiful eveing with not a cloud to be found anywhere in the night sky
Clear and cool/cold temps are always good for the camera and visibilty but hard on the hands when shooting
Used my tracker on 1/2 speed and shot fast to avoid needing a composite image
Used a minimal amount of light painting with my headlamp on the ranch house (Its a bit of a fixer upper but it has fabulous views to the center of the Galaxy...watch out for the super massive black hole! LOL)
ISO 4000
13 sec exposure
f/1.2

Canon Ra
Canon 50mm f/1.2
Manfrotto tripod
Sky Watcher Star Adventurer Pro tracker

Image processed in Adobe Camera RAW
This is a single image with no compositing
Some minor color corrections/adjustments, increased contrast of sky, increased brightness and shadows on foreground
Removed a very few number of airplane trails and one satellite trail
