Description

The Veil's position high in the sky made it an ideal first imaging subject of the trip. We had just been treated to the brightest fireball any of us had ever seen when I began playing around with ISO and exposure length. I eventually settled on ISO 1600 for 5 minutes which I stuck with for the rest of the trip. Happy with my first attempt at imaging from the site and hoping to grab the Eastern Veil on my next visit.
