    Milky Way galaxy, Sagittarius region, with Lagoon Nebula (M8). 2-shot pano. Bottom 2/3 is one photo, and top 1/3 (just above Lagoon Nebula) is from second photo. 50mm lens on DSLR. 120 second exposure using the camera's astrotracer function (that moves the sensor to compensate for star motion). Photo taken on Mauna Kea Hawaii, near the visitor station by Onizuka center for International Astronomy, at the 9,200 foot / 2,804 m level.
