Description

My first attempt on this most famous and ever spectacular DSO. Very difficult to shoot from my backyard, because of huge trees, so I had to thrash a lot of subs. Only 10 usable 180 sec subs, so not a deep quality image. But I shot them with the 0,7 reducer and after hard work in post processing,  I still  achieved a reasonable result.
