Description

To be honest I'm not too happy with this image, but I just can't get it any better. I guess that's a combination of having shot this with a big lens on a tiny mount in the middle of Bortle 6 skies, and this only being my first crack at dark dust clouds. Still, quite pleased I managed to get them!
