Few nights ago the sky was so clear in Tuscany, so i grabbed my Manfrotto and with some patience getting the right focus on the 17-40mm L I took this beautiful shot of stars in the Milky Way.

Using AstroViewer I determined by myself that that two stars could be Vega and Altair. But I could be wrong. If anyone can help, I was looking NW at 11pm local time of Grosseto (Italy)
