Description

This astrophoto took a tremendous amount of effort given my current location of 45ºN. Imaged over two different weekend, the two location are ~850km apart. Over 20h of driving, uncountable number of cups of coffee but plenty of fun nonetheless.

The St-Zenon location is Bortle 3 with an elevation of 600m (Very dry)

The Killbear location is Bortle 2 with an elevation of 100m (On the beach, quite humid)

L: 40x200s - From Killbear National Park in Ontario

R:30x120s - 10 from St-Zénon, Québec and 20 from Killbear National Park in Ontario

G:30x120s - 10 from St-Zénon, Québec and 20 from Killbear National Park in Ontario

B:30x120s - 10 from St-Zénon, Québec and 20 from Killbear National Park in Ontario
