Description

This image was taken in Cherry Springs SP in May 2023.
Given that the object was low above horizon, I did not take luminance in order to avoid elongated stars due to atmospheric refraction.
So I only took RGB with some Ha mixed in.
I think the image turned out pretty well, considering short exposure.
