Milky Way reflections on pond:

Isle of Wight Milky Way photographer makes the national press

OnTheWight first featured Chad Powell’s Milky Way work back in May 2013 when we nominated his first shot of the Milky Way taken from the beach as our Picture of the Week.

Later that year, another of his Milky Way shots caught our attention and since then he’s gone on to impress on a regular basis.

Chad’s work has attracted international acclaim on social media and this week is featured by two national newspapers.

Yesterday he had some great coverage in The Mirror, as well as with The Telegraph. Well done Chad, it’s great to see your talent being recognised.

Other IW Milky Way photographers
We now have a number of contributors to our Flickr Group of Milky Way including Mike Wilson, Ainsley Bennett and Keith Herbert to name but a few.

Merch …
Chad has expanded out from offering just prints to now providing mugs, phone cases, calendars, and we think we’ve even seen cushions, adorning his Milky Way shots.

You can see his full portfolio of Milky Way shots over on his Isle of Wight Milky Way Website.
