Was hired to shoot a wedding at East Burke, Vermont.... I've never seen the Milky Way with my bare eye (being from NYC), so it was a treat.....

I snapped these shots while i was at it...

Great shots, and on your first try. What camera body?

You got both dippers in the last shot. The little dipper is in the upper right -- it's much fainter than the big dipper.
