Yeah I have been looking for a good location to do a water fall/Milky Way shot for a while too. Not easy at most waterfalls I have visited due to vegetation obscuring the sky.

Aw shucks. Thanks Mike. Hmmmmm.....A big bear hug from Mike? Very tempted. I reckon I could be at your place in about 3 hrs.

It was just with my standard 14mm Roger. I could have easily covered the same scene with probably 3 images but it wouldn't have left much room for error. I always like to take a lot of images with my panoramas with plenty of overlap and extending out into areas I don't even plan to use. This enables me to have a lot more flexibility with the crop and composition of the final piece and eliminates a lot of the distortion errors caused by a wide angle lens panorama. It also mitigates the loss of any good or can eliminate bad things that may happen in an exposure. Like if I manage to get a nice meteor strike in one exposure but due to the warping of the panorama it may get lost at a seam. Or a plane might fly straight overhead. In both cases I would have a heap more data around those areas in other exposures to work with
