When all lights are out

When all lights are out
one can see the dark sky's 
splendidness

When all are quiet
one can hear one's own
heartbeat

This is an image taken in my last vacation where there was no light pollution. I camped in the park.  The milky way was clearly seen.

Do you like the image? How does it look to you?

Thanks

Really nice shot. Great capture of the Milky Way. I would suggest cloning out the lights on the canoes.devil

Nice image but I agree the lights on the canoes distract slightly. Nice post processing on the sky.

Thanks for your comments.

This is a panorama from 7 shots, 20 second exposure each. It was pitch dark night. The lights could have been from a camp site nearby.
