Milky Way 2

from last night, north of Bruce, Wisconsin. For a vertical image see previous photo.
The faint color on the horizon is called "airglow" (Airglow (also called nightglow) is a faint emission of light by a planetary atmosphere. In the case of Earth's atmosphere, this optical phenomenon causes the night sky never to be completely dark, even after the effects of starlight and diffused sunlight from the far side are removed.)

Nikon D810
25s f/2.8 at 14.0mm iso3200 full exif

other sizes: small medium large auto

I think I prefer the vertical one, but this is such an awesome image with those colors near the ground.
