I shot the sky with 6-10 sec exposures f/1.8 at ISO 3200, and the foreground landscape at f/1.8 60 seconds. I merged about 12 images (IIRC), and post-processed in Lightroom, Photoshop, and Topaz.

Just today I bought the Starry Landscape Stacker app, so I plan to run some images through it as I learn the software over the next few weeks. I'm trying to polish up my night photography techniques so that I can do more night work at the fire lookout tower this coming summer.
