Description

It never ceases to amaze me the difference that it makes to capture something under Bortle 1 skies instead of in the city with bad light pollution.  This filterless OSC image was made from only 1 hr. 39 min. of data, but the signal to noise ratio is so good when the skies are this dark and transparent that truly decent images can be made with a small fraction of the amount of effort required under most conditions!
