The Milky Way Setting at IISAC2009
Hi all

On Thursday night when the sky was clear, the Milky Way looked lovely setting over the mountain in the West. So on Friday night, 16th October at IISAC2009, I setup my Canon 20D and 24-105mm L lens on a tripod, and programmed it to take 30 seconds exposures on repeat.

I combined the result into a timelapse movie. There’s also a single star trails image with all of the frames combined.

Timelapse of the Milky Way Setting (on YouTube).

More details and the star trails image here:

Thanks for looking.
