Description

Second night out with the SkyGuider, this time pushing the boat out with the 400mm lens, just to see how or even if this would yield any keepers. Beyond 90 seconds was just too much, and even this length of exposure was pushing it, but I. pleased with this one, it's just 2 light frames stacked + 1 dark and 1 bias. The lights were ISO 400, f4.5, 90 seconds.
