Description

After all the mono data shot from home over many months, I tried another approach for a wider and more rewarding field. So I put the recently acquired Canon 6D behind the Esprit 80 and off I went with them on the AZ-EQ5. First data set was acquired at the village where the sky is quite excellent. Then, to each of the 3 panels mosaic each worth of 1h of exposure, I added last week 1 to 1.5 more hours, travelling half an hour away from the city.

For the core I used also some data I already had available from other sessions.
