Milky Way Over Banner Peak by BaldurTComment: Thank you Tome,
This was shot at about 10 or 11 at night and I did not try a higher ISO than 2000. This was the first night of 4 on our backpacking trip and I was tried from our 9 mile (all uphill) hike, carrying a heavy pack (the price you pay for being a photographer), so I did not play with the settings to much. The next night it as cloudy and the following night, we got back to camp at about 10:30 in the evening from climbing a 13000'+ peak (Ritter Peak), so there was no photography that night. The last night did not happen, since one of our party came down with Pulmonary Edema and we had to get down to lower elevations ASAP.
Like you said; it's hard to make out the constellations with all those stars, but tail end of Scorpio is to the left in the shot.
PS. I went back to check, and this shot was taken at 8:19 pm. As a matter of fact the glow at visible behind the peak is the from the sunset. Message edited by author 2011-09-07 20:11:42. |

Milky Way Over Banner Peak by BaldurTComment: Thank you all for the comments and votes. It feels great to have my first ribbon. This was a 30 second exposure. That is Thousand Island lake in the foreground. |
