Finished at last! This is the small version of my large Pano. The original is 13218 X 4761 pixels and takes up a file 78.6 Mb in size!!! It's stitched from 36 pictures in a 12 X 3 grid. There was a lot going on in the pic with Mars and Saturn making an appearance next to Antares in Scorpio. You can also find the small green Dot that is Comet 252P/Linear sailing away from the milky way to the upper left of the core.
Equipment and details: Sony A7S, Canon 17-40L @ 22mm F4, ISO 6400, 25 secs 36 frames (12 X 3), With manual Pano head. Microsoft ICE for stitching, Photoshop CC, Topaz filters (denoise & Clarity).
All the best
Paul
