Description

This was taking about 3 feet above see level from my backyard in Huntington Beach, CA...far from a dark site. However, I did capture 6 hours of luminance but only one hour each in RGB. I'll add to the RGB over time and take a few more cracks at processing the data...which seems to take much more time than imaging these days!!! Let me know what you think!

Thanks and clear skies!
