Description

Almost a mandatory mandatory object to capture with every new optics. I was eager to see how the Hyperstar world do with it. Unfortunately weather and moon were not quite supportive of this plan. As even thin clouds lead to huge halos around the bright star(s) I had to discard quite a number of frames. Luckily over Christmas it was possible to collect a decent amount of data in reasonable quality.
