Description

First try to take LRGB from my backyard bortle 7. Also my first galaxy photo ever!

At the start i was a little bit sceptic that is this LRGB going to work because one street lamp is only 4 meters away from my spot so every time i have to block that light with a big parasol. Well.. i had, because that parsol broke a day after i finished this image!

After all im very pleased and happy that i was able to image this at my backyard.
