The crecent moon rises under a ultra-wide view exposed for the Milky Way and natural rock formations. I originally posted this 6-image stitch here for a brief while a couple weeks ago, at which point I received feedback from a community member that the automated merging of the Milky Way images looked slightly off, so thanks! Obviously this was a ridiculously hard image to process. In fact, I would say it is THE most difficult one to process I have ever taken. Not only is is stitched but also focus-stacked and exposure blended. The visualization of my complete process in taking and shooting this shot took years and many screw-ups to get right (at least I think). I'd love to hear any feedback. I know it's not for everyone, as a non-photographer might not even know what we're looking at here, but I consider it one of my most unique images, one that can only be captured in very short windows of time.
