Welcome, Paul!
I have never got into astrophotography but it fascinates me.
Do you have a tracking system.
How do you get such a picture? Do you have to drive out of town away from city light contamination.

Yes I have a tracker. Its 15 stacked images which are then processed in Photoshop
It was taken in town, when you zoom in it cuts out a lot of the light poluiton
It taken with a 300mm zoom with a 2x convertor

Do you have a program that sets the pointing coordinates to find a particular part of the night sky?
