My first attempt at a serious panorama of the Milky Way, our home galaxy. Cape Hatteras Lighthouse provides an ideal location since it faces the right direction to compose such a panorama while maintaining the balance in the image.

This shot is composed of 6 vertical shots shot at 30 degrees of rotation and merged in Photoshop. Added to the usual difficulties of shooting and composing a panorama at night, this night was crazy hot with nighttime temperature in the mid 80s, no breeze and humidity so high that the lens had to be wiped after every exposure. On top of it, the mosquitoes had a field day running rings around me and no amount of bug spray helped. But in spite of all that, I managed to walk away with an image and experience that does appeal to me.

Fredericksburg

«I find old houses to be charming and this one is no exception. With winding stairs and off-limits closets/doors, i wished we could explore it more. Space heaters were already on for our arrival and easy to adjust to our comfort level. The king bed was luxurious, the pantry and fridge had spices and some staples, and there was even pet dishes if you forget yours. Location was convenient for our Fredericksburg event, and the animals added personality. Only wish our stay had been longer to enjoy ...
