Description

Just 1 night on Cocoon from Bortle 7 driveway.  I would like to have brought out the dark dust clouds more, but most photos I have seen so far that do a great job of showing it were done with scopes twice as large as mine, from 20 times higher, under very dark skies.
It's frustrating to be limited, but oh well, work on processing skills.
