The winter Milky Way and Zodiacal Light in a 180° panorama taken at the Painted Pony Resort in southwestern New Mexico, March 11, 2013. The panorama is a composite of 4 segments, each a two layer stack, and each exposure 3 minutes at f/2.8 with the 14mm Samyang lens and Canon 5D MkII at ISO 1600, and each exposure tracked on the iOptron SkyTracker. The ground is from one exposure per segment. Jupiter is the bright object near the centre.

A “cloud streak” photo made using the same techniques as in stacking star trails only its the clouds trailing, or streaking. I shot this Canada Day, July 1, 2015 from Scotsman Hill overlooking Calgary, awaiting the fireworks. This is a stack of 110 frames, merged with Advanced Stacker Actions using the Ultrastreaks action. Despite the blending, the ~ 8s gap between exposures still led to gaps in the streaks - you’d have to shoot at 1s intervals to eliminate them. To smooth out the gaps I added a duplicate layer for the sky with a Radial Blur filter applied to further streak the clouds. I also
