Details:
The eclipsed Moon, October 8, 2014, over the Milk River and Writing-on-Stone Provincial Park in Alberta, with the Sweetgrass Hills of Montana to the south at left. I shot this nightscape during totality. Lights from Coutts and towns in Montana light the clouds on the horizon. Orion and the winter stars stand at left, with Sirius at far left and Aldebaran and the Pleiades at top centre. The buildings in the valley below are the old NorthWest Mounted Police outpost buildings from the late 1800s. The night was partly cloudy and hazy, thus the glows around stars and the Moon.
This is a 1-minute exposure at f/2.8 with the 14mm Rokinon lens and Canon 6D at ISO 6400. The ground however is from a stack of 5 x 1 minute exposures to smooth noise.
