Hi all,

Shot this through a thick haze that developed after I started the sequence this morning so I lost some detail on the dimmer portions. Also lost visual on the Milky Way (rare when it's as clear as last night) - oh well. Geez - that's a lot of stars!

Used My STL-11000 and Borg 76ED.

Hi Jose!

Excellent work! Mind if you posted (or at least link to these) over in the Borg forum as well? wink

Thanks for the comments guys. I reprocessed the image for a more natural color balance.
