Description

This image was in Fredericksburg, TX taken as a single frame while travelling down to Big Bend state park.

I had just gotten the guide scope, and later learned I was using the wrong GPS Coordinates which causes a bit of trailing.

Only a single frame was taken as I was just messing around going from my usually Bortle 8, to a Bortle 3.
