Photo description / processing

The shooting conditions were the same as for the polar region, with haze. Considering that the Hyades are now very low above the horizon, there was even more haze near the horizon, so the stars turned out very "fluffy." Well, nothing can be done—now I'll just have to reshoot in autumn... A very interesting area above and to the right—next time I'll specifically target it for shooting!

How did you manage to photograph the galactic plane clouds yourself?

Could you ask the question a bit more clearly? )) I didn’t quite understand... It wasn’t shot through clouds, there was haze. If you follow the VK link and look at the post below with landscape photos, you can get an idea of the haze level there.

A fast lens + dark skies + integration time, that's the whole secret. My camera isn't modified and I don't have filters.

To be honest, if you're truly just starting out in astrophotography, these photos are genuinely magnificent. Not every hobbyist who has been doing this for 10 years could capture something like this.
