Description

Data gathered around summer solstice. I am living roughly 53° north and the nights do not get fully dark. However, deep south in the sky it was possible to gather almost two hours of acceptable data per night. The image took me roughly 8 nights to complete. 

RGB data and stars taken from L-PRO data and luminance (Red Channel with color cam) was acquired with the NB1 filter.
