As Far as Eyes can See - a photo on Flickriver

As Far as Eyes can See

            With Milky Way core season just about over for 2022 and half of the Australian continent presently living under skies that are delivering rain ranging from drizzling to pouring, the image I’m posting today is likely my last Milky Way panorama capture for the year. My wife and I had a short stay near the rural city of Orange, Australia, in late September, and only the last night of the trip was clear of clouds, despite things having been grey and ugly for most of the day. We’d visited this canola farm a few days earlier on the only sunny day of our break. I saved a pin in Google Maps in case I might have the chance to visit during canola season in coming years, not expecting the weather to oblige me this time. 

A layer of thin cloud was hugging the horizon on my arrival. Still, with that expected to clear within the hour, I experimented with my two Lume Cube LED banks, doing my best to illuminate the canola plants for the right effect. After seeing some of my nightscape photography heroes produce some inspiring photos of canola under the Milky Way in the past few years, I’m pleased to have done OK with this one of my own.
