Photographer’s Note
Rudine is a place where this photo is taken, its a Macedonian Amateur Astronomical site, it is close to capital Skopje, 40km, and gives from 5 to 6 magnitudes sky. There are better places for observing in Macedonia but this one is nearest from Skopje.
It is one and a half hour exposure, and you can see the celestial equator - the diagonal from upper left corner towards the lower right corner. As you go to other corners you will see that lines are bending, becose we go towards the poles, on the right is north pole which is presented by the star Polaris, but we canot see it on this photo, to take such a photo you need lens with 180 degrees FOV - fisheye. If you set your camera directly towards the Polaris you will get circles in the sky.
