The Milky Way , Mars, and Saturn over Pinnacles at Arches

The Milky Way with Mars & Saturn over the red sandstone pinnacles/rock spires at Arches National Park in Moab, Utah.

Was just going through my archive of unprocessed data from my 2018 Moab Milky Way Workshop, and came across this High ISO test shot I did just to check out how grainy the various High ISO camera settings would perform, I put the Camera on a tripod for 2 x 10 second exp. . Just decided to process it this past weekend, Sony has pretty good noise control…but I still had to clean it up a bit using Topaz de-noise. It made a great 8×10 print…but I would go up any further than that with it.

Sony A7SII camera, Sony to Canon lens Adapter & Canon 16-35mm F2.8L Lens, set to 16mm @ F4.0, ISO 12,800, for 2 x 10 second exposures stacked. 05-15-2018.
