Startrails over Everglades National Park
As the dawn drew nearer, I decided after talking with Ivan to stay and attempt a Startrails photo from the location where we were shooting the Milky Way. They call this place West Lake and it just recently re-opened from the reconstruction from the Hurricane Irma a few years ago. The newly constructed pier/walking bridge was solidly built, The red light was from my head lamp, giving the bridge a eerie glow. Weather was beautiful and getting colder as the darkness was ending soon. It was great to shoot and not have hardly any planes flying through my images – that had to be removed.

The Milky Way – Everglades National Park
I got up at 11:30pm to head out to the Everglades to meet some fiends to capture the Milky Way. The skies were clear with a cool wind blowing from the Northwest. The moon was about half full and it set around 2:45am giving us beautiful dark skies to photograph the Milky Way.
The Milky Way over Long Pine Key
The Everglades is a great place to catch the Milky Way. The weather conditions were just right, Clear skies, no moon, cool temperatures and a very light breeze that did not disturb the water surface. The location is the Long Pine Key area in the Everglades National Park. My goal was to try out some new techniques. It’s been a long night, have a nice day!

The Milky Way over Everglades National Park
From Wednesday’s Early morning session. This is the open area with solution holes on the way to the Nike Missile base in the Everglades National Park. The night sky was brilliant. Off in the distance was a strange line. I could not tell what it was at first, but when I zoomed in closer, it turned out to be layers of fog. There is a solution hole in the foreground that I lit up with my flashlight. This milky way image is made up of 10 images that I stacked to remove noise.
