I finally had an opportunity to image from some truly dark
skies.  The summer milky way was absolutely breathtaking.
Unfortunately, the winds were pretty high.  Therefore, I was
limited to shooting mostly wide angle.  On one occasion, the winds
subsided enough to allow a few prime focus shots.

Image is 2-60 min unfiltered shots on supra400.  Only a modest curve
was needed to pull out the faint stuff.  If I could do it over again, I would
have framed the area differently.  Aside from that, I was extremely pleased.
Comments welcome!

Grant:
Nice image.
I see you did took the images from Kenton, OK. which is the site of the 
annual Oki-Tex Star Party held in late Sept. or early Oct. So you were 
recently there? Where did you set up your equipment? The state park?
