Killer. Now I gotta get myself a star tracker to bring my photos up to this level. Great work.

Beautiful image. Congratulations!
Can you enlighten me on what a star tracker is. Never head of it and just starting to learn about astro photography.
Also, I assume you did a 2 shot pano of the sky and a separate one of the foreground then merged the two. Correct?

Wow, can't say enough about the shot. Thanks for the info about the shot, I just got a skytracker and I've been wondering about settings.

The words "first attempt with..." and the end result does not compute. Amazing photo; thanks for taking it and sharing with us.
