Description

Since we are in smoke season, I was unable to get any of the faint background, like a touch of Ha glow or dust cloud.  My understanding of fast optics is the main advantage is with wider more difuse targets, stars being points of lights not so much. Still, I was curious what the fast optics would do.

The result, here from 400 thirty second subs,  was a pretty clean image with a rather large number of stars.
