First attempt and outing to a spot dark enough to see and capture this.

Beautiful shot! I assume you used the 16-35 with your 5D -- great kit!

Wow first attempt and getting these results, excellent shot. Actually make's me wonder whats wrong with me as the few times I've actually taken a few shots in dark skies I got no where near as good of results as you. I just couldn't get any color in the milky way the way you and many others seem to get, no matter how long I played around in CS5.
