Description

This shot was completely unplanned but I was faced with three nights of clears skies and the object I was planning to capture was blocked by trees. I'm not sure why but I did different sets of integration time for the HA filter and the RGB. At only 10 hours total integration time I'm pleased with the results, especially the color of the stars.
