Description

This was my first attempt at this famed frame that is so popular during the summer months in the Northern Hemisphere. My father is a Scorpio, so I wanted to try to frame as much of the constellation as possible with the accompanying galaxy and dust lanes. I am pleased with it, and I feel that this is my personal best so far. I want to continue doing deep sky astrophotography, but this has made me fall in love with extreme wide field astrophotography.
