Canon Ra Reflection Night Landscape Bethel, Sullivan County, New York Astrophotography
I am continue testing new Canon Ra astrophotography camera. There's nothing quite like starry night sky. Milky Way is
moving majestically through the night, and you can see reflection of stars in a
small pond. This area was brought to the world's attention in 1969, when nearly 500,000 people gathered at Max Yasgur's Farm for "Three Days of Peace and Music" on Woodstock Festival.

Milky Forest - Testing new camera Canon Ra
I have owned the 60Da and now Canon Ra. Very happy. The camera has exceeded my expectations so far. This is one of the first test. Photo was done near Bethel Woods, NY. Lite pollution is less than in NYC, but still is visible. The camera has IR cut filter and center structure of Milky Way is pretty much visible and has good details even for such light pollution. It is better compare to 60Da.
Milky Forest - Canon Ra, f/2.8; ISO 20000, 6 sec., Lens EF16-35mm f/2.8L II USM with Zoom. High ISO and not so long exposure (usually for Canon 60Da need 10-15 seconds). Minimum post process in Photoshop, mostly image as is. Canon EOS Ra performs superbly for astrophotography.
