Excellent job ,there's a very strong presence to it, and demands to be viewed in detail , black and white has been an excellent choice for this project and composition is very strong , if there was anything to suggest would be too tightening the crop in from the sides to remove the bridge and lower the sky to match the reflection below if needed , it is an excellent image well done .

Well executed Panorama of the Milky Way Excellent capture with good colors of the Milky Way and air glow coming through with the clouds, nice pin sharp stars, that we all strive for as astrophotographers . Nice and sharp with good detail of the foreground, I commended for your persistence and getting the shot that you're happy with well done

This inspired me to want to come out and look for Aurora Borealis and see what compositions I could possibly come up with ,Thanks for your time and efforts to give us this image can't really offer it any suggestions for Improvements well done

I do like the composition of this, its very difficult to get a close subject in focus with the stars being Sharp all in a single frame. and also have the deal with light pollution, it is it image that could do with some improvements but technically correct is not always the right answer sometimes imperfections can draw you in more as I find the out of Focus tree draws me in more .well done

Love the simplicity of this "the old saying less is more" this is definitely an image that invokes a emotion and tells a story, Technically the stars are sharp the Milky Way has a good color and the horizon are straight , And the person added into the image is positioned almost perfectly , the composition works well . Excellent job well done

Love the composition of this image and the transaction from foreground to mid ground to the Milky Way ,lens aberrations has some effects on a stars in the top right and left, A tighter crop would have remove these and being a less of a distraction .excellent job well done
