Our Galactic Core
Our Galactic Core, the centre of our Milky Way Galaxy, is prominent in this beautiful 4 shot mosaic. Captured with a full spectrum modded Canon 6D, the pink areas reveal hydrogen-alpha wavelengths not usually visible to our unaided eye. Antares, the heart of the Scorpion, is the bright orange star at the bottom of the frame. The Milky Way is well positioned to view and photograph in the late evening right now. 6D, Sigma 35mm, f2.2, ISO1600, 20s, 60s & 180s exposures tracked on an astrotrac.
