Description

As I'm still learning the craft, this is another target I wanted to capture before it's gone behind the mountains too early. I have a really small view of the sky so I'm trying just one or two hours of each target to get my feet wet, before I start spending several nights on the same target. Normally I do not have many hours available each night due to the restricted view.
Anyway, I'll save the subs for next season for another round of nights.
Captured @ 600 mm from my small backyard in Petrópolis, Brazil.
