Description

A 6 panel mosaic of the Large Magellanic Cloud. Thinking I really need a new DSLR for astrophotography work, the Ha sensitivity of the Nikon D700 is quite abysmal. Although the sensor was the best in class for low light work, that was a decade ago and it is quite noisy in todays standards.
