Just awesome!!!!!!

WOW! Like it

Beautiful!

This is awesome. What were the shutter speeds used? All I get are star trails when I try these kind of shots.

I'm interested in the shutter speed too, since the individual shots means the stars will move slightly relative to the static foreground between each shot.

You are certainly doing a fine job both imaging and PP ! This would make a great wallhanger and you might even consider selling it if you have not done so . Hopefully you are copyright and watermarking your images ?

This is absolutely beautiful.. one of the best panos that I have seen..

The shutter speed for each of the 12 shots was 20 seconds. I started from the right since it would be the area of the photo that would be moving the most over time since that area of the shot was over the center of the earths rotation and then worked my way back north where the star movement from the earth's rotation is not as drastic.

Great work, I would definitely print and frame!

Great job, this has to be one of the best Milky Way shots that I have see.

Nice colors. It must be nice to be able to photograph landscapes without the light pollution of larger cities.

This is awesome!

Stunning image!
well done and thank you for sharing
