One of the main attractions of La Palma was it’s views of the Milky Way. It’s southerly latitude opens up views of our galaxy’s centre that just aren’t possible from the UK. This picture is a mosaic of two images taken with the Sigma 10-20mm set at 10mm on my Canon 350D. Each image is a stack of three 3 minute exposures at ISO 800 and f/3.5.
Cygnus and Lyra are at the top of the picture, with Scorpius and Sagittarius at the bottom.
