A large field capture of the majority of the night sky, it encapsulates an uncounted number of stars, and the constellations Cassiopeia all the way to the Andromeda galaxy.
Breathtaking, but also a testament to the ability of modern recording devices, even those at the consumer level, to take very high quality wide angle shots of large fields of the night sky. The person who took this photo used a canon t3i camera with a 24 millimeter lens, then processed the image in PixInsight at ISO 1600.
I think that the image is very nice, the only critique would be that there is some artifactual light distortion likely stemming from imperfections in the glass.
You can see the image in it's full glory on the host site Imgur but a smaller version will be shared here in the post.
It's just breathtakingly large.
