Milky Way Over Cap Blanc

[southernsteve]

I had a tight 4 night window on a recent trip to Mallorca, made even tighter by the weather, and I wanted to try and capture the milky way above Cap Blanc lighthouse. I was having a very frustrating time as I couldn't understand why I was getting so much lens flare off the lighthouse, then realised I was standing directly in line with the light. By the time I'd stumbled around on the rocks and found a more suitable location the clouds had started to roll in. Both are single exposure images, taken with a Tokina 11-16mm lens, at 11mm, f/2.8, 20 seconds, the first at 3200 ISO the second at 6400 ISO.
