Milkway and Vega
by Mike Hankey, under Stars
Milkway with Vega
Here’s a picture of the Milkway with Vega. This picture is a stacked composite of 12, 2 minute exposures at ISO800. The camera was mounted ontop of the scope piggyback style. I got my first successful attempts at the milkway last night and this is the results of my second night. The scope and camera were pointed at the zenith (straight up) which helped out a lot with the image / light pollution.

Nice job. Amazing what’s visible around here… when it stops raining!
