Hi folks,

we had a great July and August here in Austria. Many clear nights.
I wanna show you two impressions from my balcony. Done With Canon 5D MkII and Canon EF f/1.4 50mm lens.

Top shots. I like Rho Ophiuchus shot parallel to the tree line. It's pretty cool to see the milkyway extending past the eagle and the swan right up.

Both are superb. Terrific composition and it really makes the shots.

Great work.
