Some forgotten corner of the universe
“Who are we? We find that we live on an insignificant planet of a humdrum star lost in a galaxy tucked away in some forgotten corner of a universe in which there are far more galaxies than people.” Carl Sagan
Few things make the mighty Mount Assiniboine (3,618 m or 11,870 ft) seem small; but the milky way has to be one of them. This is a ten shot stack with all shots taken using a 50mm f1.8 prime at ISO 6400 and a 10 second exposure time. Mount Assiniboine Provincial Park, British Columbia, Canada.

Nothing like the rest of the universe to make anything on this planet seem miniscule in comparison :D I was trying to figure out how you'd assemble a 10 shot stack into this but I think I'm just going to enjoy the picture first.
Yes true ;-)
Great photo! Thanks for sharing your camera settings. I've always had a bit of trouble with long exposure starry night shots. I think this will help!
Best of luck.
You can really get wonderfully lost in the stars. :-)
Yes one can.

Very nice shot!
I like the quote too
Thanks mate.
this is gorgeous photo, could not even imagine that Milky Way may be seen so vividly on the surface of our planet, not in outer space! :)
thanks for sharing it with us. definitely would recommend my friends your photography blog. please keep up posting!
Thanks
I wish light pollution didn't take these kind of sights away from most of us. Beautiful picture.
Yes. It is sad that most people who live in the city never get to see stars like this.
