Description

The suprise view of 2020 with its sudden appearance as it passed into the northern hemispheres view early July 2020.  A lucky patch of good clear weather helped too and some noctilucent clouds to top it off on other shots in the sequence.

Shot on a modified DSLR through a Meade 100mm F7 apochromatic i'd not long had and hardly used seriously yet.

Exposure 10s, ISO 800

Otley Chevin suprise view car park was hilariously packed with other astronomers and astrophotographers after midnight rather than the usual doggers and druggies... much to the amusement of any new arrivals armed with cameras and scopes!
