Milky Way in Sagittarius

What can you image with just a camera with a wide angle lens and a tripod?   The Milky Way, that’s what!   I just love taking images like this.    I was in the process of upgrading my telescope mount and had taken my C-8 off the old mount and moved it to a new one.  Unfortunately, I was lacking the hand-paddle/computer for the new mount and I could not do any imaging with it.  Not to be stopped by a little problem like that I used my camera on a tripod and obtained the image above.
