Day 139, 2013 - Milky Way
I have to thank two people for helping me to accomplish this shot and many others. First, Dave. My wife and I are on our anniversary and being nerds taking pictures. Prior to heading out here I contacted Dave to give me some advice on setting up my camera to get me in the ball park to shoot the Milky Way. Dave was very helpful. I acknowledged up front that of course no two shots are going to be set up the same but he helped to get me, as I said, "in the ball park." Once inside the ball park it would be up to me to hit the home run. Thank you Dave. I can't tell you how incredibly helpful your advise was.
Second, thank you MoabLady for accompanying me on this adventure to a mountain top at 2:00 a.m. in sub freezing temperatures here in the Rockies. A second set of hands working in the dark was soooo incredibly helpful. I love you and thank you.
Within the photo you can see two shooting stars. There will be more of these posted as I learn the best ways to edit Milky Way photos in CS6.
