    Note - it is full original images, just rescaled, not good idea.

    @Vitaliy_Kiselev You're right, I forgot to set a different URL for the thumbnail img. Ill edit it tonight when I have time.

    These were taken just north of Atlanta Georgia, so Im pretty happy with these results, given the horrendous light pollution and that I do not have a star tracking tripod (yet).

    Straight up at zenith, unknown area. 25 images stacked, most at iso 800, a few at 3200, 5-6 seconds:

    Where was this shot? High altitude? I like them.

    @brianl Nope, my suburban backyard. :) Granted, I do live in a somewhat rural area of suburbia. Shooting near vertical (zenith) really helps to cut out light pollution. Thanks!
