Description

Testing a new acquisition: The Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer mount during a family camping trip to Pinnacles National Park, CA.

This is a stack of 10 images taken with a Canon 17mm - 55mm at 18mm FL. Exposure is 120 seconds each. The mount tracking appears satisfactory resulting in reasonably round stars over the 120 secs. Plan to test out at higher focal lengths which will be less forgiving to mount tracking errors.

The bright object at the front hoof of the 'dark horse' is Jupiter.
