to shoot the Milky Way, seen here from the Rocky Rapid access to the Colorado River near Castle Valley, Utah. I caught this at around 3:00 am MDT. using a very dim LED panel to illuminate the foreground.

The bright object in the lower-center is Jupiter, with the core of the Milky Way silhouetting the northern tip of Parriott Mesa. (Click image to enlarge.)
