Milky Way Transit

A brief video of the Milky Way moving across the night sky of the southern Everglades. 216 20sec exposures taken over a period of 74 minutes from 11:44 to 12:58 on May 28/29 were used to create this sequence. The sky is full of motion. Several airplanes as well as a small cloud bank move through. The brief flashes on the tree are a result of a car that drove by about a hundred yards behind me and a couple of inadvertent illuminations from my small LED flashlight as I walked around the area during the filming. Basically I set the camera on automatic to take the sequential 20 second exposures.
