Our Milky Way Rising

Shot very early this morning at the Oak Ridge Observatories in the Santa Cruz mountains.

We were up here as my friend was observing and capturing images of the "former" planet Pluto
passing in front of a 15-magnitude ( very dim ) red star in the constellation of Sagittarius.

A lot of post processing of the images will determine any change in brightness as the
Occultation occurred.
