It takes a long time to improve when I only produce one final picture per night! This is the Southern Milky Way, looking towards the center of our galaxy. The bright fog/light/washed out area at the bottom above the trees is light pollution from the Dells and beyond. Biggest brightest star is Jupiter.
Straight from the camera. Canon SX100 IS pushed to limit of ISO 1600.
Result of 50 exposures (lights, darks, offsets, and flats) Still working on it. More stars visible. Would like more detail though.
