Hey everyone, I thought I would share the first milky way image I created using a star tracker.

This shot was taken on a clear night just outside of the town I live in and the lights in the foreground on the left come from one of the aged care residencies that we have in town.

I was blown away by the amount of detail I was able to get from the milky way using the star tracker. This is a 180 second long exposure for the milky way tracked, and the foreground is a 2 minute exposure untracked.

I had a lot of fun editing this image and it really makes me want to use it for all of the milky way images I create next year!
