Description

Pleiades is such a fun object to shoot and even more enjoyable at the GNTO. Had a wonderful evening conversing with new friends and shooting all night long. It's sad to see the Winter objects coming to an end. I hope to get back out to the GNTO to capture a few more before the Galaxy season starts up.
