Description

Belmont near Geelong, Victoria, Australia - July 2018. One of the last with a cooled Canon 450D. It has been buried away along with several other images resurrected with Siril and StarTools.

A personal favourite and the fourth version. It's an excellent subject for equipment that suffers from undersampling. Typically, DSLRs vs a short focal length. And the astrophotographer forgets to remove the focus mask.
