Almö, Sweden, August 17th, one day later without clouds. It was nice to see how far the Milky Way was visible near the horizon🌌 Caught 4 meteors (composite: foreground, sky, meteor). #landscapeastrophotography #milkway #milkywayphotography #meteor #almonaturreservat canon70D canon10-22mm

Everything you need to know to take incredible deep-sky astrophotographs.

This is the time of the year when the galactic core of the Milky way rises up the horizon and the full arch is visible. After days of monitoring the weather and the moon phases, I got a small window of opportunity on Friday. The skies showed clear after 11 pm and moon wouldn't come up until 3:30 am. So I drove 40 miles north to the Middlefork Forest Preserve. It is the only designated International Dark Sky park around. Waited for it to clear up and finally after midnight I was able to shoot this panorama. I think it came out great for a first attempt, will try to make it better next time.
