Description

Having 45 minutes of clear skies on a 5 night trip to a Bortle 4 site in Zeeland, the Netherlands, and after shooting the Moon, I decided to just point the camera up and shoot 54 4second shots at ISO 1600 f/5.6 and 70mm of the Double Cluster. I added 10 darks and 8 bias shots. Then, my card was full.

Voila; Double Cluster :-)
