Milky Way over the beach

Hey guys,

On Saturday morning (3am) I drove down to Flinders, Vic to photograph the Milky Way using my telescope for tracking! I was super impressed with the results I achieved The Milky Way photo comprises of 6 images of 80 seconds each at ISO5000 and f2.8, I used my Nikon D610 which seems to handle noise extremely well. I stacked the images in DSS using Darks and Bias frames, no flats but I corrected the vignetting in the images before stacking (or at least attempted to) and processed the result in Photoshop CS6. The foreground photo was taken later in the morning at Point Leo and I blended the images together in Photoshop.

I hope you like the result, I sure do! If you have any suggestions or critiques I'd love to hear them!
