Grigna milkyway arch sent on August 04, 2021 (8:04) by Pelle.89. 6 comments, 449 views.

30 sec f/1.8, ISO 4000,

The hiking to the top of Grignetta was not easy, first of all for the 20kg of backpack (with all the shooting gear and what needed for the night) second because the sky was covered by black clouds. Fortunately once I was on top the wind started to move them and at 9 pm all the sky was pristine and clear. My aim was to make a milkyway panorama with in the middle the super-cool shelter that there is on the top of the peak, looking like a lunar module. Thanks to Photopills I prepared the frame, and I discovered that the best moment in terms of composition was at 3 am. Unfortunately, I also discovered that the galactic core was exactly over the city of Lecco, so I was very worried that the light-pollution could made the shoot impossible. The final picture is a combination of 2 six-shot-panorama: one for the foreground and one for the stars, plus 3 shoot for me and the light of my torch. As always I was prepared to make a timebland for the foreground (as I made also on Cinque Torri) but this time due to the light pollution was not needed: the light at 11 pm was enough that I had to make an HDR instead. At 3 am finally I inclined the camera up just a bit to do the second panorama. Judging from there, the sky was burned out, but it wasn't, and I was able to recover it in Lightroom. I spent the next 2 night hours up there (not sleeping for the cold) and the next morning, at the first rays at 5 am, I went down.
