Description

One of the first images taken with my new setup:
Samyang 135mm f/2 (@ f/2)
Canon 6D modified
StarAdventurer 2i
Optolong UHC clip-in filter

The 90 images with 30s exposure time were taken during a bright moonlit night. The spikes at the bright stars close to the image's edges seem to be produced by the UHC filter. But I like the outcome for 45min exposure time
