We thought that going up onto the North side of Mount Timpanogos would be the perfect place to get some good Milky Way images. With
no moon in the sky, we expected it to be very dark. Boy, were we
wrong! It never got dark. We could clearly see each other all night
long.
These two images were taken 21 days apart, while there are many differences, the most striking is the effect of light pollution on the image. You can tell the Milky Way is there in the second one, but the detail and definition is lacking - washed out by the light from the southern Wasatch Front communities.
