Shot taken June 26, 2017. The mechanics of this shot were as follows:
One exposure taken during the blue hour (about 45 mins after sunset) at 30 seconds and 100 iso for the foreground.
Twelve exposures taken about 3 hours after sunset at 30 seconds and 6400 iso for the milky way.
The last twelve exposures blended an an app called "Starry Sky Stacker" which aligns the starts to eliminate light trails and reduce noise. This outputs a single image.
These two images then blended manually in Photoshop. I used the clone tool at a low opacity in certain areas to further reduce noise.
I shoot a lot of landscapes and cityscapes across the USA but based in New England, for those interested, my website | my instagram

Did you happen to catch a glimpse of the Old Man of the Lake while you were there?
Great pic, btw.
