Description

The night was quite clear by city standard (it had just heavily rained for about 16 hours), but the scope is not yet well collimated (the stars were a bit "corrected" with StarTools).

A Baader Fringe Killer was used to try and reduce star bloating and cut out IR and UV light.

It was also full moon and the partial eclipse was essentially over by the time I started shooting (imaging ended around 1 am on July 17).
