Canon 5D mark IV. Rokinon 14mm F2.8. This is day two with photoshop following the instructions from this website - http://www.clarkvision.com/articles/astrophotography.image.processing/
the attached file is about 24 meg.
An motorized equatorial mount was used for the 7 minute 50 second exposure. The southern most photographed section is off the frame in the upper left corner.
thank you for looking!

Wow, very nice. Having tried to photograph the MW myself a few times I can appreciate it. My only suggestion to make it even better would be to have some terrestrial object or body in the foreground. Again, great shot!!

Thanks everyone for your kind comments. Here is the image again with better PP and another image of the center section blown up.
The exposure was 470 on a tracking mount.
