Athens Farmhouse

I keep returning to this location, an abandoned farm house near Athens Ontario, because it presents a challenge to me as a photographer. According to current 'wisdom' I should not even attempt to get a milky way shot here. It is close to two urban centers: Gananoque on the right, and Brockville on the left, both creating a glow on the horizon, and I cannot seem to get to this location until after the clouds have begun to move in. Nevertheless I keep trying, and managed to get this shot of the galactic center with high whispy clouds moving in front of the star fields. Personally I think it adds to the shot!
