Description

A long planned wish has come true. To record Rho Opiuchi is actually hardly realizable with acceptable quality from my home location. On La Palma I had now the opportunity to photograph over several days under ideal conditions. Increasingly the moon intervened, but I nevertheless refrained from using any filter. Bortle zone 2 to 1 should be enough.

Altogether far over 200 individual lights came off, but the squalls of the last days were not always helpful. I could use 173 frames in the end 😊

Update: Have been working with GHS and now the blue mists come out much better. I`m happy
