A partial panorama of the summer sky and Milky Way over the historic 76 Ranch Corral in the Frenchman Valley, in Grasslands National Park, Saskatchewan. The 76 Ranch was once the largest in Canada. Today, it is incorporated into the National Park. This was August 7, 2018, on a night with some haze and smoke obscuring the horizon. Mars is to the left of the Milky Way to the south in Capricornus. Saturn is embedded in the Milky Way in Sagittarius. Arcturus setting at right in the west. Some green airglow tints the sky. This crop of a 360° panorama, with the full panorama made of 26 segments: 12 in a lower tier, 8 in a mid-level tier, and 6 in an upper tier, manually positioned, and taken with the 20mm Sigma lens and Nikon D750. All exposures 30 seconds at and ISO 6400.
