Like this... Only we have ten time chances of the year. At june 10, after moonset, I tried to shoot the Milky way central with a normal telelens. The total exposure time of the image is 2 hour. But the results is good. The image dont need so hard postprocess. That was the lucky night, with great sky conditions.
Everybody like this "brothers", the famous Lagoon nebula and the classic blue and misterious Trifid nebula. I hope that this image will be on Apod.
Equipment: SW EQ5 GT + EOS1100D FS + 200/2.8 EF

The Light category winner of photo composites is "Milky Way Like a Dolphin" by Alvin Wu from China. The rising arc of the Milky Way is captured on MaunaKea observatory, Hawaii in April 2015 and shows the Gemini North telescope in the foreground. According to judge Jim Richardson "Night sky photographers have become ever more sophisticated in the ways they bring us visions of the night — and this is a perfect example. Nine images of the sky (to get the perfect image of the Milky Way) with eight images of the observatory (to record the telescope dome and the city lights below). The combined composite image brought to life something we humans can see only faintly with our bare eyes."
