Nice! It the light at the bottom of the picture Atlanta or someplace else?
I wouldn't have thought that it would be dark enough.

Looks like you have a nice little nook of dark skies there. I'm surprised.
Nice pano.

Thanks Aero and David.

@Aero_70 - I was shooting away from Atlanta, my guess that light was from nearest town Thomson, GA.

@David - This place is rated blue in terms of light pollution, not bad for a couple hrs drive from Atlanta. Clear sky also helped with the visibility.
