Isn’t this one of the most amazing places to live? Alan Dyer, whose photography this is, is living there just now, in Saskatchewan. and the SKY!! His blog is aptly named The Amazing Sky http://amazingsky.net/2013/07/12/log-cabin-in-the-milky-way/
The summer Milky Way shines over a log cabin in the woods of the Cypress Hills.
This was the view this morning, at 2 a.m., as the Milky Way of northern summer shone over my vacation log cabin on the Reesor Ranch in Saskatchewan. After the clouds cleared the sky was beautifully dark for a while before the early dawn twilight came on.
The view here takes in the Milky Way from the Scutum star cloud above the trees to the dark dust clouds of northern Cygnus overhead. The trio of Summer Triangle stars, Deneb, Vega and Altair, flank the Milky Way.
This is a composite of five tracked and stacked images for the sky and one image for the foreground shot with the iOptron Skytracker running at half speed to minimize the blurring from the tracking motion. The lens was the 14mm Samyang at f/2.8.
