Description

It was dark and foggy midnight when I went out to nearby park and started preparing the gear.

Two rambunctious lads decided to stand within 10 feet radius to me out of vast empty park field. While I try to ignore them, they were conversing with each other using incomprehensible laughter. They might be from a different planet. They left peacefully after finishing 3 rounds of pots.

Then when I was ready, the cloud came over to frustrate my frozen feet. I trusted weather report that it will go away in an hour. It turned out to be right decision later. Also it gave me time to listen to Twisted Sister's I wanna rock. Wrost band ever.

It was very foggy that I had to use mini hair dryer every 3 minutes between frames. 80s best hair metal blaring to my earphone while hair drying my telescope, while taking picture of Rosette nebula. Awesome.
