Hi Anthony. Welcome to the forum and thanks for sharing! The milky way is slightly over-processed but overall a very nice attempt. It can only get better from here with more future trips to dark skies. Keep up the good work!

Perhaps you can comment on the set up and camera settings used for this shot so the AP experts here can give you some pointers to improve your craft.

Mod/admin: I think this thread should be moved to the astrophotography section.
