Description

This image of 4 panels starts at the Ptolemy Cluster (Messier 7) which is about as low as I can go from my location. The top goes up past the Eagle Nebula (Messier 16). I wanted to do a mosaic so I decided to try my southern view. Here is my version of the southern Milky Way:

Canon 6D ISO 1600
