South and North Hemispheres Together as ONE photo.

This is two shot put together In Photoshop One of my Milky way Bows South Top and a Bow by Helber Pontes from the North Bottom. this came about by a Question from Ko and my wife as well "so if its the same all the way around what does it all look like".

Kind of in the same phase so you get to see just what it just might look like if you could put it all together as a circle. I am not that good but at least we can see the two together.

Certainly gives me the understanding of the difference between the two.

Amelia I hope you got to read while I was writing the info on these two shots. this is some thing I can only partly take credit for but putting together is me also trying to answer my wife's question as well.

this is great Steve. Super. In the area I live it is practically impossible to get such a nice northern bow

Steve Paxton replied to Ko Hummel:

Ko to do this right you would have to get a north & South shot same time same month to get a better more realistic view. these are from different months but the net result is it shows us a much more complete view of the Milky way than we normally see. I thank you and my wife for pushing me to try and see if I could do it.
