Description

A quick session before the moon came up. Got about 32 minutes of data. Will try this area again when conditions allow and frame it a bit better and try to get a lot more subs. I like seeing the subtle shadows of the dark nebula come out - some intriguing 'little' wisps showing off to the right of the main coalsack.
