Galaxy behind the trees at 70mm

[iceman]

I know this is similar to the 'Within Reach (http://www.mikesalway.com.au/2013/04/23/within-reach/)' shot, but this time it's at 70mm, f/2.8 using Fred's 28-70mm lens.

30s exposure, f/2.8, ISO6400, 70mm with the Canon 6D, tracked on the Polarie.

The composition isn't quite as strong as the 50mm shot, but I'm still pleased with how it turned out.

Thanks for looking.

Very nice, Mike. The stark sillouette of the trees really sets it off:thumbsup:
