Description

Finally got around to trying the RF 85mm stopped down (f/3.2). It definitely helped with a busy star field like this. I blended a few exposures with a diffusion filter to give some emphasis to the bright stars. The meteor was an unexpected bonus. What I thought was a meteor was likely a flaring satellite. I uploaded a new revision without it.
