Milky Way Series
Apr 28, 2020 18:57:10 #
Last week had the opportunity to go photograph the Milky Way with 3 other photographers. We practiced social distancing driving own vehicles, own sleeping arrangements (mine in back of my SUV) and maintaining 6 feet apart. Photographed on open cattle range near Rachel, NV, famous for it's Alien Inn - unfortunately closed due to COVAID-19. Late night/early morning of shooting since Milky Way did not come up until 1:30 AM.

Great shots of the Milky way. Too bad even way out in the boonies that Govt. has to mess with things.

Fabulous. Great shots of the Milky Way. Well worth the effort. With all due respect, I do not like your signature watermark. It detracts from these beautiful night sky images, in my opinion.
