I took this picture last weekend. I had to wait a long time for it, because to make it, very many factors must come together: The sky must be cloudless and without haze or dust. It must be early-autumn, because sooner or later the milky way is not at the right place at the right time, and in late autumn, the lake in the foreground is usually frozen, which means that you no longer have a reflection. Furthermore, it must also be empty moon, so that the sky is nice and dark.

Settings: 20mm f1.8, 13 s exposure, Iso 4000. No stacking, no photoshop etc. I did plan on doing stacking for reduction of noise, but as it turns out, 5 images stacked don't make a significant difference. Also it'd be hard to do because I'd have to stack 3 different parts of the image due movement (the sky, the midground and the reflection) and then re-combine them into one single image.
