You gotta love the sight of that Milky Way as you step off your front porch and she's staring straight at you. It's amazing how bright it seems some times. I need to get out to a dark area and take some shots but just haven't had the time.

wow gorgeous Scott, I caught a faint glimpse of the MW when we were up in the mountains a couple of weeks ago, there's just too much pollution by my house

Yeah, it's tragic how it looks in a typical city compared to a dark site.

Beautiful shot! I wish I could walk out my front door and see that! All I see is the orange glow of Sodium Vapor lights. :(
