Description

It became almost a tradition for me, to go for this wellknown and often imaged motifs in Auriga during late March/early April. The skies from Zenith to West are the darkest parts of the firnament when observed from my location.

This time i chose a longer focal length and standard RGB filters, supported by HII blended with B for luminance. This image has been first light with my new QHY 268m.
