A stargazing session under the autumn Milky Way, at the City of Rocks State Park, New Mexico, at the Park Observatory in the Orion Group Camping Area, Nov 22, 2014. The Milky Way arches from horizon to horizon in this 360° panorama, from Sagittarius setting at left to Taurus rising at right. At left to the west is the last glow of twilight plus the Zodiacal Light climbing up to the left in the southwest. To the east at centre and to the south at right are some bands of green airglow. At far right is the horizon glow from the lights of Deming, NM.

This is a panorama of 8 segments, at 45° spacings, shot with the 15mm full-frame fish-eye lens in portrait orientation, with each segment a 1-minute exposure at f/2.8 and ISO 3200 with the Canon 6D. Noise reduction turned on. The segments were stitched with PTGui.
