Description

M8 with L-enhance (Optolong) - it was a very short night due to the fact, that M8 is so low at my location, it just creeps over the hills for about two hours and then it is gone for the night. In addition, the direction is almost exactly towards downtown Vienna - a lot of light pollution is the result. My location is a Bortle 3.5 but that does not help in this case....14 degrees altitude with hills up to 12 degrees altitude...
