Have been in an introductory course on Milky Way photography. Haven't been able to find a good dark spot yet and was just practicing out in the backyard to just get some of the stars. Probably best on black.
Nighttime shots of the Milky Way always fascinate me - but my problem is driving to a place dark enough - I don't drive well at night any more. Have to find a place where I can spend the night. Nice start.
