Paramount - Milky way arch above Mt. Prisojnik, Slovenia

Is summer's Milky way arch too high for a 180 panorama? Not if you can find a big enough mountain to put under it :D. The one thing I do dislike about panos is how you can lose the sense of scale - when you stand here, you are dwarfed by the sheer size of this stone cathedral and jet on photos looks like a molehill, hah :D

This is a view from Sovna glava towards Prisojnik. And the best part about this location? It is just a 20min hike from parking on Vršič pass.

I know I said the same thing last month, but this is the last image of summer's Milky Way arch for this season, which makes it a bit bitter-sweet. I didn't get many astro images during the spring and summer, but autumn and winter are my favourite seasons. Also, I said this before, I kinda prefer the winter Milky way over summer :D

EXIF:

Ha RGB panorama / tracked / blend
H-alpha mod Nikon Z6 & Sigma 28mm ART
Fornax Lightrack ii tracking mount
FocusOnStars focusing mask
Sky RGB: 2 rows pano, 10 images per row
single image settings: 60sec, f2, ISO 1250, 28mm

Sky Ha: 3 rows pano x 1 image per row x 3 images stacked per row
Single image settings: 60sec, f1.4, ISO 6400, 28mm
note: Ha images were the last images I took that night (I started with sky, then landscape, last I did Ha). At that time MW was vertical, so I only tilted the camera up from Heart and Soul nebula to Cygnus region.

Landscape: 3 rows panorama, 10 images per row
single image settings: 60sec, f2, ISO 1250, 28mm
note: I did a full row in the middle, followed by capturing only the peak of the mountain which was missing from that first row. Then I tilted the camera a bit more to the ground compared to the middle row and I changed my focus to the immediate foreground.
