Description

This little piece of ruby awesomeness is one of the highlights of the Northern hemisphere.  After making a close-up photo last season I couldn't wait this time around to capture a wider field, featuring the the prominent dark trail that accompanies this gemstone-in-the-sky.

HaLRGB combination.
