City Limits View

Please look on black!

Yes you are correct best way to view it with out the white.

Even with the light pollution this is a very nice picture of the Milkyway. It would be interesting to see the EXIF's

The exif data you already know form the last time you asked nothing has changed it works. Gudrun is right apart from the ISO same as my dark night shot it was 3200. My only change has ever been time i have slowly worked down to 20 sec from 35 sec and ALL stars are as pin points not just the middle of the frame. contrast the dark sky shot next door(new) the very same camera settings as this shot BUT out in the dark sky of the country. this was a trial for me and for you both to see if you could capture in the city light loom like me the milky way bow may be not so much. i hope that i can inspire people like yourself by this shot to have a go. i believe in the KISS principle keep it simple i am lucky the D600 has two user setting i can save all the setting to and it remains there. i use that all the time, i hope this helps you.

Agree with Ko- fabulous in spite of the light pollution!
As to EXIF I guess: Samyang 14mm, F 2,8, ISO 1600?, 15-20 sec?

Yes near on perfect but for the ISO is the very same as my dark sky shot s for the trial. Hope this shows you that you can do it as well and inspires you to have a go.

I will try in october - keep your fingers crossed that skies are clear up north!

sehr Stark !!

Herbert i have to agree you can see just how strong the lights are but the milky way is even stronger

Great panoramic view.

Don to get the milky way you are looking at 180 degrees of sky south to north left to right. the result is great at giving scale as well.

Sehr schöne Weitwinkelaufnahme

Leo thank you it good to know all the work is worth it for others as well. Steve
