Description

Tried a new technique - mounting my DSLR on top of my C8 and using a 300mm lens to take a wide-field shot. There were a lot of thin high clouds, especially in the south where I had wanted to image, so I settled for the Andromeda Galaxy instead. I'm not sure why the core came out so green, but anyway, cool experiment! I'll try again when the sky isn't so crappy.
