Description

Iris was on my list for a long time already but somehow, it never happened. Although the season for Cepheus is not ready, yet, I decided to give it a try, it looked dark over there and the moon was still very young, so....

While processing the frames I found that Cepheus has strict rules: you need a dark sky! Cirrus clouds here and there ruined some 20% of the light frames so, I ended up with 44 lights, corresponding to 88 minutes of total exposure time, collected in 2 nights, May 25th and 27th. So, here is what I could peel out of this :-)

Still not sure which version looks better, currently the brighter one is my favorite. What do you think?
