From Landers, California, GMARS, Riverside Astronomical Society dark sky site, Friday night May 11.

Took 33 exposures, 5 minutes each, 800 ISO, 10" F4.5. Meade Newt, on Losmandy G-11, with ST-4 on guidescope.

Canon 20 D.

Threw out 6 exposures for inferior focus/seeing, etc. Processed the rest in Images Plus and Photoshop.

Hope you like it.
