Joshua Tree is a beautiful, amazing park with a profound light pollution problem. In this vertical panorama I tried to subdue the light pollution a bit with the Astronomik CLS-CCD clip filter for my Canon 6D, which I think did a really good job of allowing me to image some of the Milky Way that would normally be washed out by light pollution.
I placed a couple of static lights to the left in an effort add some depth to the foreground. I also focus-stacked the immediate foreground with multiple exposures to ensure full depth of field.
