Description

The first clear night in a month saw me attempt this for CN's monthly challenge. I'd never even heard of it before, so that was fun. 

I had to battle an almost (and close-by) full Moon, but worse than that, I'd accidentally set my camera to Gain 300. Still, I managed to get something, so no harm done perhaps.
