Description

Captured this single raw frame of M8 with a 80mm Skywatcher ED APO Refractor riding piggyback on top of a 10 inch Zerochromat. Stellarium software was used to capture the image by aligning and tracking utilizing the Zerochromat scope. Image was taken approximately this time last summer with my Modified Canon Rebel SL1. I just recently superimposed the image using Photoshop as one of my AP enhancing tools.
