Milky Way ove Picket Post Mountain, Az.
This is my first attempt at the Milky Way - I was quite pleased with the results! The key is to focus during daylight hours and lock your focusing ring on infinity!
Canon 5DmkIII, 17-40mm @17 mm, f/4, 30 sec @6400 ISO
Absolutely Beautiful...there's gotta be life out there somewhere amongst all those stars.
You did well on your first attempt.
Well taken.
Like it.
That's a nice one, Michael, first try or not.
No download; no specs, nice try though!
Idle curiosity--where is Picket Post Mountain?

Picketpost Mountain is located just outside of Superior, AZ (about 50 miles East of Phoenix) and is a favorite hiking destination for those who also like a moderate climb. The mountain has an elevation gain of about 1925 feet from trailhead to summit and is capped off by a mailbox to log your ascent and a park bench to rest your butt as you take in the 360 degree views.

That's just lovely! About what time of night did you shoot this?
