Description

This is an image of the latest version of my galaxy gathering rig. C8, NEQ6, and other goodies. Taken east of the city to get away from the light pollution of my city (central Canada).



Lots of fun watching the Milky Way rise, for its summer visit.

This place is quite dark, around Bortle 2 or so.

Thanks for looking!

(Canon 60D, 10mm Rokinon, 30 seconds, 1600 ISO).
