Hello all,
Second image. Averaging one ever 2 nights
The more northern tail of the Milky Way rising form the east. The cloud really played a part in reducing the detail visible in this shot, the bottom half is largely lost to it I believe.
The horizon is visible, but nothing much interesting sorry
That's what you get for looking out over a wheat field
I like the golden glow. I don't know what causes it specifically but it's a trait of this particular location I find. In the summer I put it down to dust, but in the winter I'm not sure. I can only think it's perhaps a combination of the cloud, perhaps some dust, and the white balance that the camera chooses at the time? Don't know. I do like the glow, it gives it a "old" feel - yellow is an "old colour" I think, like yellow galaxies often look old to me. It's like the star light showing up in this image is showing it's age, having travelled 100's of millions of lightyears
