Description

Poor weather for more than 4 months.
It's already summer and finally some clear skies!
It's Bortle 6 here at the countryside in Hong Kong.
The condition was slightly improved with the street lamps nearby out of order for a few days! 
After 4 nights of work I can finally get a decent photo of this dark nebula
