Description

A target that peaks at 24°? No problem, nothing f2.8 won't handle. At least that's what I thought when I Imaged this target. So much noise! SO much gradient! I definitely need more data, a lot more, but I'm happy with this initial shot, especially given the conditions I shot it in. Moon, extreme heat (40°C or 104°F) and all the dust you can imagine. Add it to the list, another product of the great Salmy desert in Kuwait.
