Description

I find this portion of sky really astonishing, due to the number of galaxies in the field and their relative positions!

To obtain this picture I pushed my dlsr to 10 min exposure: I've never tried such long exposures!

I like the overall result because I feared that noise would have been dominant, but in the end (low temperature helped) it wasn't so.

Of coure there's room for emprovement and every picture I take I learn something new: the only thing that is the same is the passion for astrophotography!

Any advice is welcomed! Clear skies!
