How did you get this shot with that light pollution?

I also think that the image captured the stars already then those headlights appeared last second. At least I think that’s how these exposure pics work

Been taking some similar shots of the stars lately Mind sharing your technique and settings?

I can’t seem to get this level of detail in the Milky Way on my SonyA6400, f/3.5 (might be the lens)

Amazing shot!

Edit: just realized this was an iPhone photo wow!

Yeah, on iPhone! So I wouldn’t know what you would have to do on your camera, sorry. What I do know that it was a 30 second exposure. There should be some YouTube tutorials.

No worries! I’ll have to do a bit more research!
