Jimna Milky Way

[StephenM]

Hi all,

I took the family camping to Jimna State Forest last week. We had beautiful clear dark skies on both nights, but the temperature got down to -3 degrees! (I'll post some frost macros in the Terrestrial photography section shortly).

Here's a panorama of the Milky Way taken just before the Moon set on July 2nd, so that there was a little bit of light from the crescent Moon illuminating the foreground (larger version here (https://www.flickr.com/photos/stephenmudge/14580961094/) if you're interested). There's also a couple of other panoramas covering smaller parts of the sky.

Thanks for looking!

Cheers,
Stephen
