 Milky Way from Tenerife, by Javier Martinez Moran

Milky way over Parque Nacional del Teide, Tenerife, Spain.
This is a 17 shot panorama with Sony a6000 & Samyang 12mm f/2.0 lens. From the top of Montaña Samara, which crater can be seen on the left. In the middle is the Pico Viejo and the Teide, highest mountain in Spain ( 3718m ).

Those days the sahara dust (“Calima”) covered the islands so the light pollution became worse than usual. Above the dust clouds , on the right we can see the Zodiacal Light , Venus, and Jupiter.

Each panel of the panorama was shot at ISO 6400, f/2.0, 25 sec.
