And for a little context if you want to add it. Its the Milky Way over the Delicate Arch in Moab Utah. It shows two late night rock climbers and the Summer Triangle overhead: Vega, Altair and Deneb.

The summer triangle are the 3 spiked stars middle left, Vega very high at the edge Altair down and to the right below the Milky Way and Deneb in the Milky Way to the Left with the North America Nebula and the Pelican Nebula visible next to it.

Is that what it actually looks like with the naked eye or does it take a special camera set up to get that image out?

That is simply awesome. I've made the hike to Delicate Arch a couple of times and I'm curious. Where did you take that photo from? And where is the light source on the arch coming from?

This is a composite of 28 photos that were 30 seconds each, so yes and no. You wouldn't get the detail or the color but if you took the picture down to just black and white it would look very similar,

The actual picture is 3 terrabytes in size and about 14000 pixels wide.

The picture was on the "rim" if you know what I mean and the light was from various flashlights people were shining on the arch. I picked a picture that had it illuminated pretty well. I also had another camera laying on the ground in front of the arch just out of view of this picture doing a time lapse and capturing a picture of the milky way running directly thru the arch.

And let me tell you lugging 250 lbs of equipment up that trail in 97 degrees temperatures damn near killed me.

I know where you are talking about, I believe.

The first time we hiked it was in September, so it wasn't too hot. Last year we did it at the end of June, mid-day. That long stretch up the solid rock nearly killed me too. I can't imagine carrying a bunch of extra weight.

Do you take these photos for a living? Or for side money?
