Description

Early this evening, some hazy clouds were passing by, not enough to stop me, so I pulled out my 2nd hand Nikon AF-S 300mm tele, fitted on the D750 and shot 65 more or less usable 1,6 sec frames. Opened the diaph' from 2.8 to 4, at 6400asa. The "mount" was a precarious kitchen chair.

Loo and behold... more of the nebulae appeared after some processing.

But you will soon notice that I miss aligned 1 frame, giving a ghostly star echo. Oh well, after double aligning 65 frames for the second time, I guess you'll just have to bear with my impatience...
