Description

This is the first of my three images from my trip to Las Vegas. I drove 125mi north of Vegas in search of darkness and found myself under Class B2 conditions over several nights. I'd not ever shot a dark nebula and didn't want to risk my precious little time under pristine skies, so opted for some familiar targets to see how I could improve on them. The results of these three images blew me away!
