I know many people do not like these sort of images but every so often I do them just for fun. The thing I like about them most is that they present an undistorted sky view as apposed to panoramic "Milky Waybows"

I did these set of images the same night as my previous image Farmers Delight.
18 image fisheye projection panorama from the 20/02/14. Glow on the left is light pollution.  Faint green and red airglow towards the top. Best viewed on a black background and full size. 
Canon 5D MkII, 14mm, F/2.8, ISO 3200, 18 x 30 seconds.

  Devious Journal Entry

We ourselves are made of Stardust - Carl Sagam

"When I look up at the night sky and I know that yes we are a part of this universe, we are in this universe, but perhaps more important than both of those facts is that the universe is in us," Tyson said. "When I reflect on that fact, I look up, many people feel small cause they're small and the universe is big, but I feel big because my atoms came from those stars. There's a level of connectivity."
Neil deGrasse Tyson

“The cosmos is within us. We are made of star-stuff. We are a way for the universe to know itself.”
Carl Sagam

orcasandwolves [2014-02-26 09:16:22 +0000 UTC]

aaaahhH! that is what I was wondering... is it the earths atmosphere that acts as an aspherical lens, thus the milky way galaxy we are an arm of is actually "flat"?

I guess you kind of answered this, but maybe you have a more technical answer. <3 sammy

CapturingTheNight In reply to orcasandwolves [2014-03-10 10:00:30 +0000 UTC]

Thank you so much Yes the Milky Way is basically a straight/flat arm as we see it.  The curved views of the Milky Way (like this for example: capturingthenight.deviantart.c… is because the horizon is projected flat.
