Blue Ridge Parkway, North Carolina. This image was taken from a pull off of the Parkway. It is a compilation of several separate 30 second exposures stitched together in post processing. Even in this remote Appalachian setting, the sky on this moonless night was not nearly as dark as the skies in Utah. The light from nearby and distant towns shows up as a golden glow on the horizon that highlights the trees in the middle of the frame. The same illumination washed out the night sky and made the Milky Way more difficult to see.
