Tower Bridge over the Milky Way by voidshatter

The foreground was taken with Phase One IQ260 digital back + ALPA 12 SWA (+5mm shift) + Rodenstock 23mm f5.6 HR @ f11 + Center filter + Lee Big Stopper during day time (15 minutes). The back ground was taken with Nikon D800E + 24mm f1.4 G @ f1.4, 3200 ISO, 5 sec, 24 frames in total, and stacked with DeepSkyStacker to reduce noise while retaining sharpness without the use of an equatorial mount. I have also taken a shot of the foreground facing south (on the other end of the Tower Bridge) so that it is close to the truth that the milky way is in the direction, however I find it difficult to balance the picture when the railing is cutting the frame in an unfriendly way, so I have decided to give up. This is my first attempt to produce a high resolution image with quality and potential to print in large without noticeable noise or resolution degradation. The effective resolution is 7080 x 4585 pixels. via 500px http://j.mp/VA21p3
