Description

This image is a salvaged picture. This was the first night of shooting with the secondary dew heater and I still had problems with wires that I wasnt aware of until I began processing. This is what caused the weird shapes with the brighter stars. It is also hugely cropped due to two massive reflections in the upper left and right parts of the image that was caused by Alnitak. It still made a decent picture I so I posted it here and will try to revisit this target soon.
