MARS, SATURN, GALACTIC CENTRE Taken by Ray Butler on June 1, 2016 @ Co. Galway, Ireland




At latitude 53N at this time of year, the night sky is in permanent twilight, and these constellations only just scrape over the southern horizon.

So Ive never attempted such a shot before - and frankly did not think it would succeed as well as this.

But generous exposure, accurate tracking, and a site free from light pollution (Mace Head) help a lot.
