You've given me a nice reference image however.

Thanks Rob! I am not sure how many panels I will end up taking. I am taking this piggybacked to my CDK17 on an AP1600 at my observatory so I can't get totally all the way down to the horizon although I was surprised I was picking up some landscape early on the evening so perhaps wider than I think.

Thanks David. Widefield Milky Way shots make a lot of sense for us in Australia as most of the world does not really get to see the whole of the Milky Way.
