Wow you've got a treat ahead . The view with the naked eye is far more mysterious as the clouds really do look like clouds and the dark nebulas are intricate but the sharp bright stars in the foreground give a magnificent 3D effect, It is all in good old black and white of course . No photo impression can ever replace the experience of engaging the Milky Way with your eyes - its real time and much more powerful
