First of all


1° 360 panorama
1°milkyway of 2018
1° time there, rly good sky

Story:

When I arrived on the cliff of Sardinia the weather was not good ... A lot of humidity, lots of particles in suspension ... I mounted my setup and I started to track the sky

incredibly, the first shot was excellent, the core of the Milky Way was well legible, the dark nebulosity was well contrasted ...

so despite the clouds I went ahead with my 360 degrees panorama and I managed to bring home a good job.

"On the way to the stars"
Copyright: Martin Činčura
Image

This panorama of rising Milky way core was taken in the middle of Slovakia near one of national parks.
It is a place with relatively good quality of night sky.

I am trying to find my own way to the stars. Typically it is so dark during that nights, so I need some extra light on my journey.
Is this way the correct one?

Picture was taken on 14th of April 2018.
