If you thought that you need some fancy software to shoot the Milky Way, think again. Photographer Michael Shainblum (previously) shares a Lightroom only tutorial on how to edit a stunning night sky Milky Way Photo.

This photo was taken at Joshua Park using a Sony A7S with a Nikon 14-24 lens with a 20 seconds exposure at ISO 12,800, and it is just a proof of how well the A7S handles noise.

Now, there are many ways to edit a photo and using Lightroom is just one of them, but what’s nice about it is that it is a single software process and not an expensive one at that.

Here is a quick before/after view of the edit:

If you want to see a full tutorial on how it was done, set 20 minutes aside and watch the movie below. The amount of tips you would get is just ridiculous.
