Taken at the end of Autumn. This is a 20 panel mosaic of the rising Milky Way from my dark site observatory.
There were a few burn offs occurring in the general area hence the orange/brown hue in the lower part of the sky.
Sony A7r, Nikon 14-24mm at 14mm F2.8, Novoflex adapter, 30 seconds ISO6400 on a tripod. The Sony seems to be even more sensitive to low light than my previous Nikon D800e which almost for sure would have shown the foreground as black. There was no moon.
