Description

Went to a Bortle 8 to shoot this target.  You'd usually want to go AWAY from light pollution for astrophotography, but it so happens that the beach house I was staying at in Ocean City, New Jersey had a perfect view of the South that my house does not have.  I also had to shoot through haze for my blue frames, so I had to battle those gradients.
