Description

Minus its tail. The weather plagued the weekend of the star party and this was taken in a very short window before clouds rolled in over and again.

It is grossly undersampled and not well framed. As much as I like the portability and simplicity of the mirrorless camera, it has limitations. And very much experimental at the moment.

It is not quite starless but many were healed out in StarTools.
