Taurus Rising over Mt Kerkeslin.jpg
The stars of Taurus, including the Pleiades, rising above Mount Kerkeslin, with Capella and Auriga at top left. Castor and Pollux in Gemini are among the trees at lower left. The winter Milky Way runs from Capella down to Gemini.
This is from the Athabasca Falls area, looking east over the river flats. High cloud added the natural star glows but also some sky discolouration. The rising Moon off frame is beginning to light the sky.
This is a stack of 6 exposures for the ground, mean combined to smooth noise, and one exposure for the sky, all 25 seconds at f/2 with the Sigma 20mm lens and Nikon D750 at ISO 6400. Taken October 22/23, 2016.
