Description

Weather forecasts didn't look promising as the cloudy day cleared to a clearing night sky.  Shooting in between cloud banks I managed to salvage 38 x 60 second exposures using the C14 Hyperstar and an APS-C sensor.  The individual subs showed nearly the full extent of a faint curving tail on the computer monitor.  Colors readily appeared during processing.
