A warm hazy night limited the useful exposures to 120 seconds each, but I thought this still turned out fairly nice. I always like it when I can catch the reddish glow around the outer fringe. The deep blue of the central star is also quite beautiful. Once the moon leaves the evening sky I’d like to try this one again if the weather clears enough to try longer subs.
