Description

This was shot 9/6/21, Labor Day while in the Cherry Springs area.  Fortunately, we were able to shoot in the yard of the house we were staying in.  We did not have to go to Cherry Springs Park.This is a “saved” shot as I realized in the morning that I forgot to change my iso to 800 after framing the shot.  I ended up adjusting the exposure in Lightroom first.  Then stacking the adjusted light frames.  It’s not perfect, but at least it wasn’t a complete waste of two hours.
