Description

I have attempted this one a few times, but it is low in the sky and I usually have a few trees in the way. I was recently able to make it out to a Bortle 2/3 location in the mountains in Virginia and got some good data during the new moon. I would like to frame it a little better next time, I misjudged it a little bit and cut off some of the dust around Antares.
