Description

4 hours total (over 2 nights), each frame is 1 minute at f2, unmodded camera. My deepest shot to date.

About 1/4 of the frames were taken through slight fogging of the filter, so the bright stars developed halos, which were attenuated by the stacking; I think the colourful glow around Deneb and Sadr actually enhances the image.
