A 360° fish-eye panorama of the winter sky in mid-February, shot from home in southern Alberta. Orion is to the south at bottom, with the winter Milky Way arcing across the sky from southeast, at bottom, to northwest, at top. A faint glow of Zodiacal Light extends across the sky from west (right) to east (left). Urban sky glow lights the sky to the west. To the north at top, an auroral arc extends along the horizon. The Big Dipper is at upper left in the northeast. Polaris is at top centre. Venus is bright and setting low in the west at right. Leo is rising in the east at left.

This is a stitch of 6 segments, each shot with the Rokinon 12mm full-frame fish-eye lens at f/2.8, for 30 seconds each at ISO 6400 with the Nikon D750. Stitched with PTGui.
