Description

Shot as an experiment to see what kind of results are possible with a Canon Lens instead of my usual APO Triplet Refractor. Obviously the field is wider, but I might need to do some work on the colors. Could have been several factors though. Partial moon, low target, skyglow and possible over-exposure on the 2nd night's set. 

Despite all my complaints, I am very pleased with this, and hope you are too!
