I woke up at 4:30 am and saw that the sky was clear when I looked out the window. The new 7Artisans 7.5mm f/2.8 fisheye lens was already mounted on the Olympus E-M1iii camera, so that got used to take a couple quick pictures. I was still half asleep and didn't notice that the lens aperture was stopped down to f/4. Also, astronomical twilight was already underway, so the sky was getting brighter and bluer. Too bad I didn't wake up an hour earlier.
This is a preview of the Milky Way near midnight in late July or mid August, when the sky will be darker.
In this version of the same file, some digital filters were applied to suppress the faint stars and increase contrast in the Milky Way:
