Took this image the other night
After 3 weeks of rain and clouds this image was actually taken with a thunderstorm off to the West. Was very interesting having the sky light up with lightning from time to time.

12 x 5 min
Ha 10nm
Sbig 8XE camera
Fl/ 2348
F/7.8
Guiding was done with a STV attached to a FSQ
Ap 1200 mount
