Description

I really struggled with this image and ended up cropping in a good amount. The bright stars in the frame were blowing everything out and I had a hard time stretching this image. I really should have been taking shorter exposures. I was only shooting 60s exposures, but at f/3.3, that ended up being too much (in my opinion). I think I will end up re-shooting this target next fall and see if I can get a better result.
