Description

Another clear night, another set of great memories in Shenandoah National Park. I decided to give my star tracker + ASI294MC Pro a try with the Samyang 135mm lens and am pretty happy with the results. My daughter and I were also treated to one last view of a setting comet NEOWISE above a distant thunderstorm... pretty neat!

Here's the Rho Ophuichi Cloud Complex. This shot was created from 54x60" subs combined with 20x100" subs- all unguided on my Skyguider Pro and ASI294MCPRO camera. Calibrated with flats, darks and dark flat frames. Stacked in DSS, processed in Startools, finished in Lightroom CC.
