I am finding night sky white balance best around 4200 to 4700K (it seems to vary or vary between camera models).

Did you take this shot in RAW?

I reckon it could be enhanced to be even better. The top stars are a bit elongated and I know without tracking its hard to avoid but there are tricks. They are a tad distracting. The Milky Way could be enhanced quite a bit.

What a fantastic idea for framing - and you got the shadows of 2 peoples - ooh clever. A Malin entry?


The PM me if you're interested.

Greg.

Thanks Greg! Wow Malin you think so, that would be so exciting! Regarding improvements I will PM you about this, thank you for being so generous.

Yes I took it in RAW. The shadows are my cousin and myself on the left.
