Description

Waited for the nearly full moon to set at Stephen C Foster State Park (Okeefenokee, GA) and only had 90 min of darkness, but it was Bortle 2 : )

I'm going to try and blend in the high resolution Ha data I already have from my AT130EDT with the QHY163m for the lagoon in a later revision, should be good practice as I havn't done Ha-RGB yet.
