Milky Way by Dark Arts Astrophotography Via Flickr: I was searching through some images I shot earlier this summer and came across a montage I hadn’t yet published, so I figured it was high time to get it out. The Milky Way is always a beautiful sight from a dark location, partticuarly in summer from my latitude. Nothing beats shooting it with an ultra-wide lens. The sky was tracked over a period of 1 hour using my iOptron SkyTracker and subsequent images stacked. The foreground was from the same cameram, lens and session, but I physically moved the camera about 3 meters to get under the gazebo. When compositing the foreground and background, I attempted to blend them at the same angle for a more natural look, and I managed quite nicely. Shot at Camden Lake Provincial Wildlife Area near Moscow, Ontario, Canada. Tech Data Nikon D750 Vivitar 13mm f/2.8 iOptron SkyTracker Sky is 20 x 3 min exposures @ ISO 400 Foreground is 1 min exposure @ ISO 400.

Ta Prohm - Cambodia

Built in the Bayon style in the 12th and 13th century, Ta Prohm is believed to have been used as a monastery, and university. Unlike other temples at Angkor, Ta Prohm is in relatively the same state that it was found, with trees and other fauna having taken over parts of the temple. This has made it one of the most beautiful, photogenic, and most visited temples in Cambodia. 

The temple was famously used in the Film Tomb Raider, which starred Angelina Jolie. Many locals and guides are able to point out the parts of the temple used in the film, and can vividly describe the scenes involved.
