Two Styx Night Panorama.jpg
A 360° x 220° panorama of the southern night sky, showing the Milky Way all the way across the sky with the centre of the Galaxy directly overhead. The Dark Emu extends from the Coal Sack at left to the dark lanes in Scutum at right. Venus is rising at far right amid the zodical light and some cloud. Mars, at opposition, is just setting behind the trees at left of centre.
I shot this at 4:30 a.m. April 11, 2014 from the Two Styx Cabins just outside the boundary of New England National Park, NSW, Australia. This is a stitched panorama composed of 6 segments, each taken with an 8mm fish-eye lens on the Canon 5D Mark II.
Each segment is a 1-minute untracked exposure at f/3.5 and ISO 4000. So the stars are trailed and with this projection also distorted at the top edge (the zenith) and at the corners of the frame.
